Currently I have an old i5 9600k with an MSI Z390 -A PRO and 2x8Gb Hyperx Fury 3200mhz DDR4 RAM.

Im planning to upgrade to an i5 14600k but stay on my ddr4 rams for a couple years.

What kjnd of motherboard should I buy to be able to run with my old ram kit? Is that possible?

You can still get by just fine with DDR4 idk what people are freaking out about, plus DR5 boards are usually more expensive. But I get what they’re saying; if you’re buying a new motherboard might as well have it DDR5 compatible if you want to “future-proof” it. If you’re not strapped for cash I say go for that.
