    Thanks so much for the swift reply! Reassuring. I’ll be devastated that I’m going from CL14 3200Mhz to CL19 2666Mhz if they want to “upgrade” me. I did a lotta research when piecing my build, and the AMD 5950X has an Infinity Fabric of 1:1 at CL14 3200Mhz. I wanted the absolute best baseline, GPU-excepted. Sowing down ain’t for this build.

    What state if you don’t mind me asking? I lived in FL, TX, MD, and PA before jumping The Atlantic Ocean a few years ago.
