[QUOTE="terence_fdes, post: 2488643, member: 39628"] As you have a really substantial budget. I can only point you towards some of the pitfalls of the latest gen of hardware as I have experienced in the last 6 months. This is my RIG: [B]i5-13600K | Gigabyte Z790 UD AX DDR5 | 64GB GSKILL TRIDENT Z5 6000MHZ | ASUS TUF GAMING GEFORCE RTX 3060 V2 OC 12GB | BENQ PD2700U – 27 INCH 2160p | [/B][SIZE=4][B]ASUS TUF Gaming 1000W Gold Power Supply[/B] [/SIZE][B]| Noctua NH-C14 | Thermaltake The Tower 900 Snow Edition with 9 Fans (NZXT & Vardar) | NZXT Hue+ with 7" Internal Monitor | WD Black SN850X 1TB M.2 NVMe Gen4 | NZXT LED Controller Hue Plus [SIZE=5]Problems I face:[/SIZE][/B] 1. Frequent BSOD errors - waiting for a new BIOS update (problem is also related to the point mentioned below) - and note that whether you use 16/24/32/64 GB Ram is not the main issue. 2. Configuring 64GB DDR5 Ram 6000 Mhz has a problem on the Z790 Motherboards with an Intel i5-13600K - and even after keeping it at default values 3. Sad possibility of even a G.Skill ram stick going dead within 2 months (so I have had to RMA both pairs 16GB x 2 of the pack) - so now I have only 32 GB. 4. Depending on usage on my config - at default settings RAM runs only 5100 MHz Clock speed at maximum (average is 3500 Mhz) - so buying a 6000 MHz RAM was a waste I think with the premium price I paid (33K in Feb 2023) See image attached below.
