Thank you, I wondered. I keep thinking I need to upgrade to 32GB from 16 but have get to run into a need other than the prices are pretty cheap these days
I haven’t run into issues on my gaming rig with 16. If I was building new I’d get 32 for sure. But my old 10700k and 4090 seem to do just fine on 16. Even when running unoptimized emulation like early days with ToTK I hardly used more than 12.
I feel those days are ending soon though and will need more in the next year or so.

If you want to upgrade, get better speeds. AM5 Expo settings are quite stable nowadays, and the less RAM you have, the faster a cold boot is.
IMHO 16gb @ 8000 > 32gb @ 6000. I’m thinking of doing this in the future.

I agree. 16 is enough, but 32 is safe. And 64 is too much!
Does AM5 even support 8000 tho? Thought it topped our at 6000
At least my mobo does: https://www.asus.com/motherboards-components/motherboards/tuf-gaming/tuf-gaming-x670e-plus-wifi/helpdesk_qvl_memory/?model2Name=TUF-GAMING-X670E-PLUS-WIFI
I’ll consider that, thank you!
