Having used laptops for a long time, my last desktop build was Core2Duo era; there's far more scope to get spec'ing components wrong these days!
Currently looking at RAM.
From looking on the forum, I see https://www.overclockers.co.uk/team...3200mhz-quad-channel-kit-black-my-094-tg.html come up
but then I see
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/team...3600mhz-quad-channel-kit-black-my-095-tg.html
which is slightly cheaper, CL16 vs CL14 but it's 3600MHz vs 3200MHz. Is it likely that the cheaper RAM will work at CL14 3200MHz?
B-die looks to be one of the most important things to get.
I want 32GB over 4 sticks so that I'm making use of quad channel, but should I be considering ECC RAM? This machine will be used for gaming, but also as a VM host for various work things. ECC is not something I've used before, it looks like it'll be slightly slower - but I wonder how often does the error correcting kick in.. does it really matter?
Motherboard will be Asrock X399 Taichi
