Ddr 6000 is the sweet spot because not all chips can do 6200 let alone 6400. It's the same io die as Zen4. Some hit 6400 but most don't. The 3 7800X3D's I tested could not run 6200 stable enough. Most of the time it does not even boot. You need very customized settings to get it to boot. Maybe newer bosses can improve it a bit more. But I understand why amd recommendeds 6000. And about pbo a lot of apps did not benefit and made it less efficient. I'm very sad to say it because I would have loved to pay for a nice uograde over my 7800X3D. But Zen5 desktop is not that good. It's very good at certain server workloads and it will probably so well there. But desktop Zen5 has some kind of bottleneck in most applications. Some show what the new arch can do but most do not and some even perform worse. It's sadly not what we hoped for. The only hope for gamers is a 9800X3D that can clock higher than the 7800X3D but looking at Zen5 so far I do not expect wonders. I hope they can fix this scaling issue with Zen6 so am5 can have one good upgrade. At this point they should release Zen7 on am5 as well since Zen5 did not give us a lot in terms of performance. AM4 had 3 major uplifts. Zen3, Zen3 and Zen3X3D and one smaller one with Zen+. I don't think AM5 will come close after Zen5's disappointing performance.
