Just looking at what options are out there as I currently have a 13600K with 16GB of 8pack ram that runs a 4000mhz c17 and would like to move to 32GB though to move to 32GB bdie DDR4 may be expensive. I could look for an DDR5 motherboard and ram and sell the old stuff though outside doubling of the ram would the gain be minimal or a sidegrade?

Thanks for the replies and advice. I've not run into any memory problems except Firefox can chew though RAM up until 75%+ but then I end task every now and again and its fine. I mostly game (End task Firefox before hand) play older games/emulation and the most intesive game I've played recently was Final Fantasy 15/16, Resident Evil 7/8 and those run fine on 16GB.

I'll keep an eye out for a cheep 32GB DDR4 kit but will proberly leave it be as this system has been rock solid.
