I am building a machine for my “productivity” loads (mostly large code bases compilations + lots of virtual machines).
Main specs: intel i7 13700K, no gpu, 1tb m.2
Because of vms I run, I need some ram, so I would buy 64gb. Should I go DDR4 3200 or DDR5 5600?
DDR4 is quite cheaper, also motherboard is quite cheaper, so it adds up. But would DDR4 be a bottleneck for cpu?
Most reviews talk about gaming, but maybe ddr4 and ddr5 effect my workloads different?
DDR4 is probably better for value. Just built another 128GB 13700k system since it was so cheap.
What motherboard did you use? Is there any real performance difference?
where I live DDR4 and DDR5 are the same price at the moment.
