Ok seems like ddr4 on intel 12 is still future proof.
Since gen 13 or gen 14 will force a mother swap again you can postpone the decision

Thank you for this test.
This is the second test with the same outcome, 400-600€ memory kits are only worth it for overclock highscores.
There are going to be comment like: "you need to disable E-cores and overclock ringbus" "why not 7000? this is where the magic starts to happen" the timing comment already happened.

overclocking used to be the budget way of gaining performance. Now it's the "rich guys" way of gaining 5fps.

because of everyone ocing everything, and they just decided to do it themselves, and make some extra cash for binning stuff more.

Well that was interesting, might be the first batch of DDR5 that trully feels above DDR4 across the board.
