Well, wasting CPU is pointless if it sits idle with good silicon. Boards become super costly and add unnecessary perks like overclocking—something that’s been dead for a while. If you're aiming for Alder Lake, hold off until the new chipset boards arrive. Non-K CPUs and their boards are barely useful these days; nobody overclocks them, and you’re paying for features that don’t add real value.

I’m working on upgrading from 12.9 GHz to 6.0 GHz and reaching 12900k to 6.0GHz. It’s time to step back.

Well if you had some phase change then 6ghz is prob acheivable as long as you arent afraid of high volts Tho its prob more worth it to make a cheap tec cooler for your rams and oc the crap out of those

Additionally, for gaming purposes, a low-latency high-frequency setup using Gear 1 DDR4 appears to match or exceed the performance of today’s Gear 2 DDR5 options.

You're getting a cryo cooler for the CPU and are having trouble locating a tech cooler for the RAM.
