His monitor also features freesync (which I just noticed for the first time) and it's really impressive. But since I'm older, my eyes consider 60 to be perfectly okay. I agree that anything above 100 would make a big difference, especially with freesync, which would prevent any screen tearing. I believe his system is quite good as it stands.

I really like AMD and dislike Intel. It's fine with it, but I paid $136 for a Ryzen 7 1700 – Intel doesn't match that value for performance.
Cinebench is reliable; I'm capable of running it on two different chipsets and already have the results. It's within the acceptable range regardless of RAM speed between 2133 and 3200 MHz.
Purchasing a set of each will give you a clearer picture.
The gap between 2133 MHz and 3200 MHz is about 1606 MHz, which is significant.
I plan to perform my own manual overclocking, adjust timing, and increase voltage to check real performance gains.
However, based on the tests I've done so far, especially synthetic benchmarks, faster RAM isn't making much difference.
As someone who likes building things, I'm mostly repeating what others tell me, but I'd say yes – it's about the Instructions Per Clock advantage most games use first, then move to multi-core performance.
Intel focuses more on increasing frames per second, while AMD excels in IPC.

I don't care about the technical details of computing (I get what IPC means and why it matters, but not exactly what it is), but for me it's all about Adult Legos... PC building and finding slots that fit together properly lol... just making sure the hardware matches.

No, the clock speed edge is there. Intel has a 5% better IPC than Ryzen and also outperforms their older Haswell chips. However, Haswell can hit 4.5-4.8GHz and works well with 144Hz gaming. Based on what I've noticed, Intel's processors don't care much about this, while Ryzen does because Infinity Fabric depends on RAM speed.

Can you maintain consistent performance above 100fps regularly? If not, it doesn't clearly indicate memory speed needs based on IPC. The focus should be more on single-core performance and latency benefits. Even if an FPGA can reach 50GHz, that doesn't necessarily mean better IPC—it's about timing advantages instead.

Ryzen doesn't really care as much as everyone says.

Sure, it's straightforward. I can adjust the settings for any requirements and perform comparisons. I've already tried all these steps. There doesn't seem to be any significant benefit here.

This decision to replace my FX 8350 came from an old debate I had in 2017.
I created another rig in 2019 to test it again.
There are no extraordinary gains except in GTA5 so far. It achieved a 9% improvement in frames, but that's all without Synthetics.
