I try to make it a habit to build a whole new machine when a new AMD socket to accommodate a major memory standard comes out. Way I figure, many people will dump their older hardware, so I can get a bargain on top-shelf stuff of the older standard. So when DDR6 is out, I pick up a 1024gb of DDR5 and a Threadripper of the generation.

While I don’t like the FOMO from not adopting the latest platform, my wallet much appreciates the mercy.
