What AM4 chipsets and CPUs after Zen 4 are you refer to? Probably not Zen 4 which means your posting is invalid. If someone want the newest architecture he need DDR5. On Intel there is still a choice.

Ah yes, force people to adapt new RAM standards early, when they're always terrible. I see they're taking a page out of AMD's Zen 4 handbook.
At least the 600 chipset will be compatible with Raptor Lake CPUs so there's that, but Zen 4 CPUs on the other hand...

Others will skip the 700 generation unless it gives them what they need.

This is a bizarre view on it.
If you want DDR4, use a DDR4 platform.
If you want DDR5, get a DDR5 platform.

No I gotta have the latest 32 core CPUs with SD RAM I gotta CONSOOM!
I was pretty stupid looking back at it, but that's nothing new

Another fail in context for you. I did not mean AMD was going to continue developing new CPUs and chipsets for AM4, only that they were going to continue making the existing product lineup for the foreseeable future. Is that spelled out clearly enough for you, hmm?

I think the only reason intel gave us DDR4 and DDR5 was because they knew of the shortage, and it revealed funnily enough that gaming was better on DDR4 until you passed DDR5 5600
