Wauw like Intel :-p i have Intel 12 Gen with DDR5 5200 mhz cas 36-36-36-84 OC to 6000 mhz with cas 34-34-34-75 T1..

There are few benchmarks around but the ones I've seen show that AMD isn't bottlenecked at all by average RAM. On Intel, you need to be pushing min framerates of well over 100 in order to start seeing any difference with super fast DDR4. Even then, 5% is all you can expect to acheive by spending twice what some 3600 CL18 will cost you.

We have to consider that DDR5 is at the start. Speed and timings are very likely to improve in the next few years.
That is a really bad test.
Tweaking memory on zen is not just about clock speed. Tweaking timmings is as important as increasing clocks.
And why are they testing at 4K? Everyone know that at 4K, the GPU is the major bottleneck.
And testing with IF and memory not at 1:1 ratio? Seriously.

I thought Zen 2 sweet spot was 3733MHz - 3800MHz RAM/1900MHz IF was outside spec and considered an OC?
Same for Zen 3, being 3800MHz - 4000MHz RAM/2000MHz IF also outside spec and considered an OC

I guess this also means that REALLY high memory clocks will be doable on zen4 in 1:2 mode, >10000mt/s potentially.
