    My main reason for saying ddr5 is because a lot of audio application's performance can be tied to memory performance, ddr4 and a h610 mobo will be more than fine. If you can, i'd get the 12400f as its definitely the best price/performance ratio on 12th gen intel, the gammaxx would definitely be preferable, intel chips get very hot with stock coolers. I feel that on a spiritual level tho. lmao. Like the other dude said, theres no better time to build since prices are going to keep creeping up as time goes on, i think you'll have a really solid build for music production with that. I'm on a ryzen 5 3600 and i can throw everything + the kitchen sink at it and it handles it just fine (I cap at about 80% with big polyphony, granular synthesis, omnisphere, kontakt, etc) and the 12400f absolutely embarrasses mine. lmao

    Nah, you're right, now's the time to pull the trigger and go as big as possible if you're planning a build, prices are definitely on their way up right now.

    I live in the states, im sorry to hear that though thats stressful as hell. I think thats a perfect part for you, you'll have to get really creative with a looot of processing to choke that thing out. I've had my cpu for 2 years and i know i could still probably get another 3 or more years out of it if I really wanted to and yours will last you even longer still! I wish you the best of luck with both the build and the economic situation, shit is rough right now and i hope it all works out for ya

    According to Deepcool's website, Gammaxx 300 B is not compatible with LGA 1700 (Intel 12th gen). For an efficient and silent economic heatsink you can consider for example Mars Gaming MCPUBK (here 19.90 Euros). DDR5 are still too expensive, RAM is mainly used for sound libraries: large libraries (e.g. Kontakt) require many GB of RAM, preferably CL16 (low latency), instead the speed is better equal to the CPU memory bus ( 3200 MHz for Intel 12th gen) or slightly higher (3600 MHz). If you don't use sample libraries 8GB (4 + 4) may be enough, otherwise with average use 32GB (16 + 16). Pay attention to reviews that often refer to video editing or gaming applications and very rarely to audio production. Resource management is very different: video requires a large number of simple operations, audio much fewer but very complex operations, and high single-core efficiency. In audio production, the latency of the components (even of the CPU cores between them) is of great importance, while the graphic resources required are minimal.

    for cooler i'm still searching,i couldn't find the model you wrote,i think cooler master coolers are also fine,(there are cooler brackets for lga1700)
    today i bought a corsair vengeance 16gb 3200mhz cl16(Maybe I'll add another one later if I can),for now i think it's enough,
    tomorrow i'm going to grab an asus prime h610m a d4 and i5 12400f.

    Thank you for your time and help:):bow:

    It would have been better to buy the motherboard first and then the RAM. The Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3200MHz CL16 (I guess you bought these) are not all the same: in the code there is a letter indicating compatibility.
    By consulting the Asus website, the following models are compatible with the PRIME H610M-A D4:
    CMK32GX4M2Z3200C16
    CMK32GX4M2B3200C16
    CMK32GX4M2B3200C16W
    According to the Corsair website also:
    CMK32GX4M2E3200C16
    CMK16GX4M1E3200C16 (I think you bought this)
    CMK32GX4M2E3200C16W
    Where: CMK means Vengeance LPX, 32G the total amount of GB, X4 = DDR4, M2 the number of sticks in the kit, Z, B or E the compatibility, C16 the Cash Latency, (W colored white). https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-C...s/PRIME/PRIME-H610M-A-D4/HelpDesk_QVL_Memory/

    CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 are fine. They are 2 sticks of 8 GB each (2x8). The PRIME H610M-A D4 has 2 RAM slots (not 4). When you wrote "today i bought a corsair vengeance 16gb 3200mhz cl16 (Maybe I'll add another one later if I can)" I figured you bought only one stick and then add another in the future. Hyper 212x is not compatible with LGA 1700, instead regarding Hyper h410r rgb Cooler Master it says: "LGA1700 mounting kit included in products with New Packaging Design. You may obtain required mounting kits for products with older package design through CM store or regional resellers and distributors. " These "Arctic" brand models are suitable for LGA 1700: Freezer 7 X - Alpine 17 CO - Alpine 17.
