You're checking how your new i7-10700k would perform with different RAM speeds. The motherboard you have is compatible with up to 4600 MHz, which is more than enough for DDR4 speeds like 3200 MHz. The CPU can indeed access RAM up to 2933 MHz, so your system should boot normally at that speed.

Most intel cpus from recent years reach a maximum of 2993, and upgrading to faster RAM won’t significantly change performance beyond that. You might see only a small improvement of 1-3%, but it’s not worth the extra cost compared to cheaper options. For Ryzen processors, faster RAM is especially beneficial as they perform best with quicker data access.

Ironically, 32 GBs at 3200 MHz is more affordable than 32 GBs at 2933 MHz at the moment. Appreciate the assistance!
