I'm looking for opinions on the Kingston KF453C20RBK2/16 FURY RENEGADE 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 5333MHz RAM. Can anyone tell me if this RAM will work with the MSI Pro Z690-A Wi-Fi DDR4 motherboard? Also, I'm curious about its overall value. Thank you!

There's no guarantee that it will function at the full 5333MHz speed with the XMP profile enabled. However, it is compatible and will default to a lower speed without any issues using the basic settings.
I was surprised too when I found out they even sell DDR4 RAM at those high frequencies! But yeah, it can get quite pricey. How much is it going for?
You can check the compatibility by using the model number on MSI's support page. Generally, any DDR4 RAM should work with a DDR4 motherboard, but the real challenge is whether it can achieve those advertised speeds. If the RAM is on the list, you're good to go!
Just a heads up, if your RAM isn't listed on their compatibility page, it might not hit those high speeds. Always best to double-check!
I found it for about 149.9 euros!
