I discovered RAM compatible with my motherboard, but it's a 3200 CL16. I’m considering a 64GB option—it’s decent or quite risky for the 5900X. Z Neo is great for boosting performance, allowing you to push up to 3600 MHz.

No specific need was mentioned; the request is about the necessity of 64GB of RAM.

More RAM is preferable. When 64GB becomes common, the 5900X might become obsolete and slow.

Are you certain? Some folks say it's fine to purchase a 64GB device.

The bigger 64GB size restricts your chance to expand the RAM, which in turn affects performance. That's why it's advised to purchase only the amount you'll really need.

Currently even 16GB isn't common for most users. If you're worried about staying ahead, opt for 32GB. Going for 64 is likely unnecessary if you can't even imagine using it effectively. 32GB should comfortably handle gaming alongside numerous Chrome tabs, Discord, and other background apps.
