Nothing like a memory kit that costs more than your cpu and motherboard combined.

The funny part is that this kit probably won't even boot in adequately priced Z790 motherboards at the advertised speeds and timings.

Still, this is one for the future. When the time to sell 12600K and switch to DDR5 with a new build comes in a year or two, don't see much point in buying anything slower or with less capacity.

Boot? 8000 boots on a $225 MB for me. Stable? No.

Only way you'll reliability get DDR5-8000 stable is with a Z790 Tachyon, Dark or Apex.

I'd like to see their 'more reasonable' RAM kits in 48GB as well. Should be a good midpoint as 32GBs are getting mainstream and 64GB are still too much.

From today's perspective, DDR5 8000 still seems fantastic to most of us. But this view will not last long.
