Its been almost three years since I upgraded my hardware so I am getting ready to do it again. I do no gaming and but do sometimes have graphic/photograph tasks and frequently deal with large PDF files. Nevertheless, as always, I just want a machine that responds as close to instantly as possible to everything from opening hardware, big graphic files, starting software, etc. Therefore, although there is no practical rationalization, I rebuild my machine about every three years or so for the sole purpose of always having a very fast powerful machine. I now only toy a bit with overclocking as reliability and stability are most important to me so I plan to just set the bios up for the best performance possible from the hardware. At this time I am considering an Intel I9-13900K, Asus Z790M-Plus Mobo, and 32 Gig of DDR5 memory. So, I have two questions:
1 - For this combination of hardware, what memory spec would be reasonable. I am thinking of DDR5-7200 but I am not sure if this would be a big overkill.
2 - With respect to Windows 10, is there even an iota of an advantage to use 64 Gig RAM instead of 32 Gig?
