I was looking at prices, and in Argentina DDR5 boards are more affordable than DDR4 ones. The MSI Mag Z790 Tomahawk Wifi DDR5 costs $240, while a set of two 16GB 5600 MT/s CL40 Corsair Vengeance kits is $145. It could make sense to hold off until you can afford the full upgrade.
DDR5 boards are becoming more common now, and they tend to be more affordable due to larger production runs. The situation improves with quality B760 models such as the ASRock B760M PG Riptide, which in the US is roughly $30 cheaper than comparable DDR4 options I checked. That price seems a bit steep, though I’m unsure about local RAM costs in Argentina and it might be typical. Motherboard prices are currently matching US levels, while this setup would likely cost nearly double in the United States. You might want to explore alternatives from non-Corsair brands, as their products here usually come with higher prices for similar performance.
