A few months ago I spent 2800€ on a new build with a flagship AMD CPU and GPU.
I lost my shit when I realized I had installed a mobo that supported PCIe 5.0 for storage but only PCIe 4.0 for the card slots, until I checked the specs of my RT7900 XTX and saw that it was also PCIe 4.0, so I was even.
I also ignored the RAM OC compatibility sheet of the mobo, as the manufacturer can never test every possible RAM module, and I got other modules that were still within the supported OC ranges. When I tried to overclock the RAM the system became completely unstable, so I cannot use them to their full potential.
I’m still happy of my non-rgb and non-glass panels build, tho.
