    I would NOT get the pentium, its just a dual core and its much weaker than the 4690K.

    The note is CYA. Intel certifies XMP memory kits so the kit is certified by Intel to work with Intel cpu. You see the same sort of CYA note when motherboard & cpu manufacturers talk about overclocking. As with most higher speed memory, you will likely have to select an XMP pofile in the BIOS to get the memory working at advertised speed and timings.
     
    If it is a concern you can find DDR3-1600 CAS 9 kits that operate at 1.5v.
     
    Using a single module eliminates dual channel operation which is a performance penalty.

    not really, it depends on the read and write speed, 256gb is enough, i'd put a 128gb ssd to make the build cheaper
