I'm looking for a RAM recommendation for my AsRock Z170 PRO4 motherboard. Originally it was paired it with two Corsair CMK16GX4M2A2666C16R 2x8 sticks and a Crucial M.2 CT250MX200SSD6.

However, neither of these components is on AsRock's compatibility lists. I've been going through these lists and am faced with a wide variety of choices. Any advice would be welcome.

The processor is an Intel i5-6600 BX80662I56600

The power supply is an EVGA SuperNOVA 850 P2 220-P2-0850-X1 (850W)

Best regards.

i just ordered a 6600k and z170 because there were great sales on them, very little difference between gen 6 and 7, and windows blocks you from using windows 7 on kaby lake.

windows 10 privacy and info collection stuff creeps me out
