10 months agointel states the 12900ks is only capable of support UP to 4800 mt/s
No they don’t. That’s the maximum rated memory speed, not a limit. Anything beyond 4800 is an overclock and not guaranteed but any 12900K should do 6000+ without a problem.
It’s not board specific, it’s an issue with the socket while it’s not “necessary”, for the price of the ThermalRight one there really is no reason to not use one.
