• This motherboard is DDR5 compatible. The DDR4 version is labeled as such. I'd recommend checking the MSI website for a list of tested and verified-compatible RAM for this board if you're thinking about purchasing it.

• I have read that DDR4 is supported on the DDR5 model, but only up to 3200MHz. I have read online, that higher speeds DDR5 on this chipset, do not really outperform, and may actually be slower than DDR4. With the higher prices of the DDR5, is it worth it?
