Price?

What rams are they?

Depends how much it's all going for. 12600k is normally around the same price as 5600x in Canada and the states. 12400f trades blows with it and is typically much cheaper.

12600K would be a better option imo then. Example parts:

If you can afford another 100, then I would recommend the 12700k. I think it has a better future than 12600k.

It needs an aftermarket cooler. You can go with the Scythe Mugen 5 for $50 or you can go with 12400f build that comes with a cooler:

You don't really need to go with a Z690 board because the non-k intel CPU's are not overclockable. The B660 boards now support ram overclocking so there is not need to get a Z board if you don't have a K CPU.

So do you think that ASUS TUF GAMING B660-PLUS WIFI D4 is good enough for the cpu ram?

[Jonathan Lee]

Yup that looks like a pretty solid motherboard
