I'm on a budget and considering whether to buy 32GB of DDR4 RAM in 2025. Is it worth it, or should I opt for DDR5 and get a slightly less powerful GPU instead?

You definitely need to check compatibility with your motherboard. You can't just mix and match RAM types. DDR4 is good if you're keeping a lot of other parts in mind, but don’t forget, choosing DDR5 often means a newer motherboard and CPU, especially with AMD’s latest line-up. Just keep your overall build in mind!

Yeah, it sounds like OP is still figuring out their parts list.
