I'm currently running a build with 16GB of DDR4 RAM, an AMD Ryzen 5 5600G CPU, an RX 6600 GPU, and a TUF Gaming B550 Plus motherboard. I'm wondering if I should upgrade my RAM to DDR5 or just stick with upgrading my existing DDR4 setup. Is DDR4 becoming outdated? What's the smart move here?

Upgrading to DDR5 isn't just about getting the latest RAM; it's often tied to an overall platform upgrade. If you're looking for enhanced CPU performance, then moving to an AM5 platform could be beneficial. Otherwise, it might not be worth it on AM4.
Got it! So, if I'm considering an upgrade, should I just aim for AM5 then?
