Poor pricing all round, only 13600k stands out seen at £338.25 on another retailer earlier but sold out now and can go with ddr4 or ddr5 option
No rush for me so will let the dust settle but if need to do build now it's difficult to justify what to go for
I feel in 3 - 6 months prices will drop especially ddr5 and boards

You're on an Asus board Matt, start with this:

Try 6000 1:1:1 first, then see if you can work up to 6200 (IF will be running at 2133 at 6200). That's about the limit at 1:1:1 and you're into DR after that if you start dropping ratio's.
IF will fail before frequency does, Hynix M are good for 6400+. You just can't abuse the frequency while being IF limited.

Already running that but need to aim for 6200, will give that a watch tomorrow. Pretty sure my sample does not like higher than 2100 zmhz sadly.You're on an Asus board Matt, start with this:

hehe, I bought some DDR5 Kingston FURY Renegade 16GBx2 kit, the website I bought it off said they had 1 left in stock.
Then immediately after the order, it's in stock again and they automatically put the price up, by about £30...
Sneaky. It does demonstrate though that there is a big problem with DDR5 stock.
Also, discount codes that very rarely actually work.
Get the impression IT retailers are struggling atm.

I'm not sure either.
It does seem to improve minimum FPS, at least when tested on Alder Lake systems.
It helps the 12700K and 12900K to keep up and in some cases, be a bit ahead of the 5800X3D.
There's also the Igor's Lab article, showing differences in gaming on Zen 4:

There's a much bigger gap between DDR5 @4800 MT/s and 6400 MT/s at 1080p.

So, I went with the Asrock B650 PG LIGHTNING in the end, for ~£200, as it seems to officially support upto 6400 MT/s DDR5, and the spec page also mentions an 8 layer PCB.
Specs here:

Edit - the cheaper B650M PG RIPTIDE has a 6 layer PCB (I'm unsure how much this matters), similar to the ASUS B650 Prime boards.

I don’t think Forza generally scales that well as the game is pretty well optimised.Found this interesting, I know it's just one game but really making me question what the point of expensive RAM is.

The staff member who is doing it said he chose that game specifically as it's "memory sensitive". Who knows.
Samsung VS Hynix DDR5 - Daily & Performance Overclocking Comparison feat. Corsair Dominator Platinum

That's another one worth watching while you're trying to get your head round the nuances of DDR5, it's still relevant as the same mem IC's are still in circulation now.
With Zen4 being hamstrung with the IF limit, pointless watching / reading about pushing frequency when your focus is all about tightening.
Some good news being ofc, you don't need stupidly priced kits to get there with Zen 4 unlike ADL / RPL which is all about frequency.

Using the highest preset does not make much sense though. I prefer to use SOTTR, 1080P lowest settings to measure ram scaling.

Let me know how you get on , that board was on my list
