I have sold my main system a little while ago and have been using the system that i primarily use for emulation. It has a 12600K, Asus B660M Tuf Gaming Wifi, 32Gb DDR4 3200Mhz and now has the 3070ti from my old machine. So i recently purchased a 14900KF to build a new system but was wondering what performance i will be losing if i use the current system with the new CPU with DDR4 rather than DDR5? From what i have seen, people who have done tests with comparable motherboards but versions with the DDR4 3600/4000 and DDR5 6400 state there is about 2-10% performance difference depending on the task. I will probably have to undervolt/limit the power of the CPU to get it not to run silly hot until my Freezer 3 360 arrives later this month, so has anyone ran something similar then noticed a significant performance increase when they finally upgraded to a DDR5 board/Memory?

If it makes any difference i will be looking to buy a 9070XT later this week if one is available.
