I'm planning to build a new PC with one of the upcoming Intel 14th gen Meteor Lake-refresh CPUs. From what I've read, these new processors will support both DDR5 and DDR4 memory.

I'm wondering what would be the best RAM to pair with a 14th gen CPU to maximize performance? A few key considerations:

• Is it worth going with DDR5 over DDR4 for the faster speeds and bandwidth? Will real-world performance be noticeably better with DDR5?

• What speed RAM would be ideal - something like DDR5-6400 or is that overkill? Would DDR4-3600 be sufficient?

• How much of a difference does RAM timing/latency make for Intel 14th gen - is it worth prioritizing lower CL RAM?

• Is there a "sweet spot" in terms of capacity - like is 32GB ideal or is 16GB still plenty for gaming?

• Are there any specific RAM brands/models that are best in terms of compatibility, stability, overclocking potential, etc. with 14th gen CPUs?

Would appreciate any insights from those knowledgeable about Intel 14th gen and RAM! Looking to find the best balance of performance and value. Thanks in advance!
