DDR4 and DDR5 slots aren't compatible. Upgrading from DDR4 to DDR5 requires replacing the motherboard entirely. Unless you're looking for something unusual, this isn't recommended. For more details, check the article here: https://www.vortez.net/news_story/onda_h...pport.html

The Z690-A model works well with i5 processors. Some people have managed to boost an i7 on this platform, so problems shouldn't arise.
