There seems to be no end of confusion surrounding every aspect of PC gaming nowadays. With the unoffical hidden retail holiday "Christmas in July" fast approaching there is always a chance of prices slightly dipping as models with new stickers and a new marketing budget to match hit warehouses.
With how fast TeamGroup (among a few other non-notables) is bottoming out already it seems the least desirable option at any speed or latency.
Friends don't let friends buy Corsair RAM.
Crucial only appears to have adapted SKU for OEM business and workstation PC.
G-Skill don't seem to be all that popular, or low latency, or OC'able, or faster than DDR4.
24GB seems to be stagnating and rare enough to cost more than 32GB pairs.
Actually seeing a gaming mobo hit 7200 is a rarity by most accounts.
Considering DDR5 6000 CL 36 is not faster than pretty easy to find DDR4 3600 with almost a third lower latency. Considering DDR5 has yet to bring anything to gaming performance.
Is there a sweetspot for DDR5 currently?
