DDR5 wont come this year to the consumer market for sure. Imo AMD will support DDR5 with their next socket, Intel maybe the one after 10th gen.

 

wait unless what you have now is awful

So your mobo died, then its time to go Ryzen 3600 cpu perhaps with a Tomahawk MAX mobo and Viper ram 3200+ about 8GB to save money or 16GB for final build spec.

Quote

When we visited MSI in California during our 2013 visit (when we also showed how RAM is made), they showed us several high-end laptops that all featured a single stick of memory. I questioned this choice since, surely, it made more sense to use 2x4GB rather than 1x8GB from a performance standpoint. The MSI reps noted that "in [their] testing, there was almost no difference between dual-channel performance and normal performance." I tested this upon return home (results published in that MSI link) and found that, from a very quick test, they looked to be right.
