I'm putting together a PC with either a Ryzen 5 9600X or 7700X. I'm looking at RAM kits and found a 32GB 5600MHz @ CL36 for 140 euros. There's also a 6000MHz @ CL36 for around 170 euros, and a 6000MHz @ CL30 for about 180-190 euros. I'm leaning towards picking up the 5600MHz kit now since prices seem to be increasing. Do you think the performance difference is worth the extra cost?

Check out this alternative instead of the 6000 CL30 kit: it's a local buy—might fit your needs without breaking the bank. Just look for a similar spec!
You might have missed the boat on the 6000MHz @ CL30 kit a few weeks ago; prices have definitely gone up since then! But if you're looking to save some cash, the 5600MHz kit should serve you well.
Yeah, I get that! But if you can, I'd still recommend going with the 6000MHz if it fits in your budget.
If you want to save money, the 5600MHz is perfectly fine for your setup. But if you can swing it, the 6000MHz will perform better overall.
I wish I could! I'm limited to local options here in Greece, so I appreciate the suggestion.
