Will the fastest DDR5 memory be a waste of money with a Ryzen 7000 system?

It seems as though the memory architecture of Zen 4 CPUs remains essentially the same, just tweaked to support DDR5.

According to WCCFTech, the Infinity Fabric can run at around 3,000MHz, which in a 1:1 ratio would mean that DDR5-6000 will become the new sweet spot. Much like with earlier Zen CPUs, you should be able to run faster memory, but then you'll get a latency penalty because of the 2:1 memory to IF ratio. Games tend to respond better to lower latency than they do to higher bandwidth. With that in mind, it's looking like a good low latency DDR5-6000 kit could be the best way to extract the most from a Zen 4 system. Such kits are falling in price too, meaning fears of prohibitive DDR5 pricing slowing adoption of the AM5 platform are slowly fading.
