ASRock Z790 PRO RS LGA 1700 Intel Z790 SATA 6Gb/s DDR5 ATX Intel Motherboard - Newegg.com

is this a motherboard that can use xmp 3.0 6400 ddr5 ram?

Check ASRock's page, OEMs list the specs for all their boards. The page for that one is here: https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z790 Pro RS/index.asp, and the relevant memory section:

 

XMP is technically OC (overclocking) so it should work with up to 6800Mhz XMP profiles, though as per usual with XMP it isn't a gaurantee, you may need to punch in the main speed/timings and let the motherboard sort the sub-timings.

 

They should also have a QVL list with kits they actually tested themselves, and what they ran. Looks like it's under support: 

 

And they have a few 6400 and 6600 kits they tested to be 100% sure they work:

 

All motherboard OEMs do this, the site layouts are sometimes mildly different, but this is how you can track down what the OEM says will 100% work or not. Anything else is a "probably/maybe". For what it's worth, I've never bought based off the QVL list, and haven't had any issues aside from a Corsair DDR3 kit not playing nice with its own XMP profile on an X79 Dark, but that's an easy fix (as mentioned above, key in the speed/main timings/voltage and let the motherboard sort the rest).

so from what you said 6400 xmp ddr5 will work on the motherboard?

It should. The exact kits they list there are tested to work 100% with their XMP profiles. Any 6400 XMP kit should work, at worst you may need to key in the settings by hand instead of using the profile, but you will still be able to run your full speed.

well is the fast intel gonna work on a core i7 13700k?

It should assuming a good motherboard. The memory controller on 13th gen is significantly better than the one on 12th gen and should be able to do that level of memory speed.

[aShqrk]

[Gohardgrandpa]

1080p/1440p/4k, 60hz/144/240hz? Do you have a motherboard already? Brand preference?

Pretty vague question to ask if we don't know of a budget.

Well, a Ryzen 5 5600X or i5-13600K, which the later being king of the mid-range right now is perfectly in reach for you to go with. 

[Ryuikko]

Pretty much any new gen cpu would be fine given you're playing at a reasonable resolution for a 6900xt. I'd take a look at the 13600k(f)
