I'm skipping DDR5 RAM for now and here's why
Building a new PC today? You're likely considering DDR5 RAM, but here's why I'm planning to skip this generation ... for now.
If you're building a new PC in 2025, DDR5 RAM is a no-brainer since it boasts significantly higher speeds and better efficiency than DDR4 modules. However, if you already have DDR4 RAM, upgrading to DDR5 doesn't make much sense, both financially and practically. That's because upgrading to DDR5 memory isn't as straightforward as buying new RAM sticks from online retailers. If you do that, you'd quickly realize you wasted your money when you try to install it onto your motherboard.
