Thinking of getting new RAM for i7-10700k currently I have HyperX Predator 2x8 3200MHz. And I’m thinking of getting 2x16 kit for coding/virtual machines, gaming although I’m not sure which speed should I get, my motherboard is ASUS Z-490PLUS and it supports up to 4600MHz. Although, I’ve read some posts and some suggest getting 3600MHz or is it better to get faster RAM like 4000/4400/4600 to future-proof my PC?

    Based on these results some are at 2x16 4400

    That does not guarantee you are going to get 4400 problem free, I suggest going max 4000-4266.

    If you click those results in the list, you will see many who achieved over 4400 are using just 2x8 kits, 2x16 or 4x8 does not go quite as high.
