Please use pcpartpicker.com, it's a great aid for this.

It'll all fit in the case, but you should really be using pcpartpicker.com. It has a french (or Canadian) version and it'll find the cheapest sites in your country for parts.

 

Also, why are you buying a motherboard for overclocking when your CPU is locked?

No offence, but you want something but might want to do some research into WHY.  If you don't know that CPU was locked for OC vs the motherboard you pick.... you don't seem to know why you want a certain speed as well as latency RAM.

 

What's your goal here?  What will you be using the PC for and what's your budget?

Good info. I wasn't bashing you, I was stating that you may want to not be set on a certain item if you don't fully understand why you want or need it.  We can help with that

The Intel K series processors overclock on the Z series motherboards.

a guy gave me this response a while ago: if you want to utilize the best of your memory you would need a z370 boards. as other 300 series chipset are memory capped @ 2666 MHz.
any budget z370 should be fine for your application, as your 8700 is non oc-able,

He's right and wrong. I think you took the information the wrong way, which isn't a bad thing since you asked here. Like @jstudrawa said, I'm not trying to bash on you but this is a reason you should have done more research, because you don't really need Z370 to "fully utilize" RAM. The advantages of Z370 for RAM is the fact that you can overclock the RAM, but RAM speed doesn't really change FPS in games.

 

Also, he said the other 8th gen Intel boards are capped at 2666mhz. You interpreted that a little differently that I think he meant, because that's just what the manufacturers officially support (RAM speeds up to 2666mhz), but that doesn't mean you can't stick 3000mhz RAM on a B360 motherboard (or a different 300 series) and not be able to boot your PC.
