before making your cpu choice (top left corner select)
because few cpu will work with that mobo:ram combo
do NOT trust pcpartpicker alone when it comes to
cpu:mobo:ram compatibility as AM5 is very particular.
another problem is some AMD cpu's don't play well with faster ram;
https://www.techpowerup
and may slip in timing delays to accommodate them which in turn
defeats the whole reason why you bought faster ram.
consider it's highly unlikely anyone will need more than one 5x4 M.2 for the OS
as secondary 4x4 M.2 for games and apps is already more than enough speed
especially now that newer 4x4 can run in the 7000 speed range, which saturates
the bus to the point where that dram vs dram'less no longer matters to read speed.
-M2D_SB (4x4) shares bandwidth with PCIEX4 (4x4); using one disables the other.
Gigabyte is the worst of these, Asrock is the only one that did it right. Problem is that they're now about as hard to get as a 9800X3D
