Stick with DDR5-6000 CL30 for gaming.

No. The performance difference in games is usually 1-3%, and you’re paying a lot more for the privilege. DDR5-6000 CL30 is the sweet spot for Ryzen 7000/9000 and Intel 12th-14th gen – it’s fast enough, stable, and doesn’t require fiddling with voltages or motherboard quirks. The higher-speed kits (7200+) can actually cause instability on some boards, forcing you to dial them back anyway. You’re better off spending that extra money on a better GPU or CPU.

Future You will thank you for not chasing marginal gains.
