Just a quick one, I was wondering if gskill have resolved the issue they had were they were not putting thermal pads on the power management IC's on thier DDR5 modules?

I'm in the market for some DDR5 and was looking at the Z NEO or Dominator platinum models

No, can't remember where I read it but GSkill do not consider it an issue since the PMIC is safe up to 90c.

How fast are you planning to go ? Only really had errors after 8000.
Normal case ventilation kept them under 50c under 8k.

I wasn't planning on going fast instead I was planning on as tight timings as I can get at 6000 to 6400 depending on my 7800x3d
