If you're wondering why you'd want this over 1x16GB, it's simple: Dual Channel bandwidth.
By running in pairs, you get more performance than a standalone stick.
If you aren't upgrading the RAM as soon as you get the system, this is a free performance upgrade.
Also anyone able to confirm if you can get 10% off using the new customer coupon and the discount thats already on the machine through dell, I think I asked a rep one time, and they said its one or the other....

Thanks for the tip!

Actually I'm wrong...but you would need to file a claim with AMEX and a claim with CHASE...they both would cover up to the amount charged to the card!...Good to know! There were some cards that in the past would only give extended warranty if the full amount was charged to the card!
4 slots of DDR5 can be problematic and/or requires much more power (so more expensive motherboard design etc) so a lot of them are only putting 2 slots now. Too many support calls regarding 4 DIMMs not running at advertised speed and/or not booting at all.

The 14th gen i7 has some more E cores and a bit higher clock speed, but still doesn't bring it up to the same level as the 13th gen i9 and definitely not i9k.
The i9 and i5 14th gen are just a small step up in clock speed, nothing worth paying a premium for at this point.
The i7 14th gen may be worth considering if you're doing a lot of video rendering or other intensive multithreaded stuff and don't want to pay to step up to the i9 (13th or 14th gen). However you definitely need to get the water cooling as both processors will likely get thermal throttled to about the same performance in that use case otherwise.
