Hello friends, my new build is a i7-13700K paired with a RTX 3090(will update to 4000 series) I currently have an ASUS ROG STRIX z690-A gaming wifi D4.

My issue is should I keep the DDR4 M/B or return it and get the DDR5 version. And depending on your suggested choice, which RAM kit/kits would you recommend?

If going big might as well go big. 🤷‍♂️

Do you have any recommendations for DDR5 then? Because I don’t know anything about the new GEN

corsair is also a very reliable brand but i don’t know too much about their DDR5 stuff yet

a 64gb ddr5 kit is going to be very expensive tho

It's not like Gen 4 NVMe where half are basically just Gen 3 specs.

the best kit that i can find rn is this

#

32gb 7200mhz

#

but then again i’m not really looking properly ik there’s defo better kits out there but i’ve heard very good things about this

Even with /r/buildapcsales & Slickdeals the deals will only be 32GB 2x16 kits.
