Me: with 8400 CL36 DDR5

I will never go back to that speed again, that is kinda slow now for my personal taste, my gut feel tells me to be comfortable with at least 7200-7400mhz CL32 just to cure the itch, its 2024 now and midway approaching 2025, DDR5 has already matured and pretty much evident reaching new heights with the speed it can now attain.

(I did not say zen 5 is bad in any way)
