Would be big for budget builders.

THey should remake the 5k series on AM4 platform 
This would be MASSIVE!

Keep your fingers crossed. multipleoutlets now reporting.
If this does happen I think it will be because the big playersa in the market feel the RAM issue is gonna be around for some time. More than just the end of this year.
That would be CRAZY if amd did that for am4 cpus
isnt this going to make people just use AM3 for AI builds too?
This isnt really isnt that we need CPU support, its that RAM is being bogu ht for AI. They did it for AM4 too. what is stopping them for AM3?
I feel like they need to hard code RAM or CPU to just reject AI applications.
We saw manufactures attempt to make GPUs deny crypto mining when it was an issue with 3K series, and it would half or even 1/4 the hash rates, but people found a work around within a month.
If theres more push for it, and they are successful, i think this will be the sweet spot
AM4 uses cheaper/slower DDR4 RAM. The AI problem is not retail usage. Its LARGE commercial data centers gobbling up DDR5 RAM. DDR4 is too slow for them. On top of that, there is absolutely no incentive for RAM manufacturers to do what you said. There is way more money for them to cater to the AI companies who pay top dollar than to sell to individual consumers. The example being Crucial pulling out of the retail market and only selling to the commercial sector now.
hmmm valuable information. I was really under the impression DDR4 was being used by AI too.
I guess there just hope we large scale AM4 memory produced.
What is the main difference internally from am4 and am5 memory. were seeing double speeds but why exactly.
Half correct, half wrong. The ai data centers what fast ram, that means that they what the ram chips not the actual ddr sticks, or at least a special kind of ram unit. But you are correct about the ai data centers wanting fast ram, so the slower ram chips that ddr4 uses is almost unwanted (to my information) because the chips that ddr4 uses have a faster response time. Although I think that there are some other things that this goes into that I’ll explain tomorrow
