Upgrade advice please

Thanks and I bet I will not notice any difference if I went for 6000MHz?

If you’re going AMD, you should only get 6000 MT/s since that’s what AMD recommends and anything more is pushing your luck and would require tweaking at best and may be unstable at worst.

Even 5600 MT/s is fine for most people tho and if it’s dirt cheap, a good option.

I’d get a not too expensive kit of 6000 MT/s if I was you. Don’t spent a fortune.

Edit; misunderstood the Structure of the question and gave the opposite answer by accident.

So somit like this here
 
64gb is hard on the IMC so may not even be able to run at 6000mt/s. just a thought.
by all means spend that bit extra to get 64gb 6000mt/s but don't be surprised if it doesn't work/is unstable unless the memory is downclocked

I forgot that. Yes.

OP, I would personally suggest TEAMGROUP T-Create Classic 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-5600 CL46

I thought I would update you guys

Went for the Ryzen 9 7900x (Got a cracking price thro another supplier)
Asrock B650m Pro RS (Non wifi)
64GB Crucial Pro 5600 CL46

Running HWInfo its reporting 53deg idle, not sure this is high for the 7900x. When I then run Photoshop it rises to 75deg and takes a long tome to revert back to 53deg. I have the AIO pluggeg into the CPU Fan header next to the memory slots I am cooling it with a Fractal Design 360AIO set to auto and the case is currently open.

AS yet I have not done anything in the bios and was wondering if I need to do anything?
 
hitting max temp quickly and taking an age to cool down suggests something isn't right with your cooler

is the aio definitely working?
have you mounted the cooler properly?
did you remove the plastic protector from the cooling plate?

also i would plug the fans and pump separately
fans to the cpu fan header
pump to the pump header or any other fan header and run this at "performance mode" or 100% (i normally run the pump in performance mode)

This was the cooler I used with my Ryzen 7 5800x and it worked as it should.

I havemounted it the same way I did with the 5800x

Yes the plastic protector is removed. AIO fan setup is per Fractals instructions

I am going to remove the pump from the cpu die and check for contact and reset

yeah just had a quick look round and the 7900x tends to idle high
45-60c seems to be normal
operating temp is 95c max so it appears that everything is fine with your chip and cooler
 
With it getting so hot so quickly, I can't wonder if it has downclocked. How many watts is it burning at 85c? Undervolting is good. C states enabled and does this actually make a difference.
