Realistically, there's a very tiny latency difference, unless you're performing heavy workloads. As shown in some of Linus' videos, there's an intangible difference in performance between ddr4 and ddr3 in use. 

Holy shit so many uninformed people.
Of course you can post without it to make sure it works. Just shut it off after you get to bios.
There are safety features built in to prevent damage and overheating.

No, you do not use need a CPU cooler in order to see if your PC posts. I have a custom water cooling loop in my build, with a 5820k, and I didn't use a cooler to check if it posted at first. Your socket does get pretty hot, but there's virtually no danger unless you actually try to perform tasks without a cooler.

Yes, I do agree, but I honestly believe that companies like Corsair, Logitech and Razer should not advertise their keyboards to be able to reach 16.8 million colors if they don't even come close. That's what I'm trying to say...
