Intel’s 13th generation of processors classified as Raptor Lake will retain support for DDR4.
Intel originally wanted to support both DDR4 & 5 only on their 12th gen CPU line as sort of a crossover generation.
But now thanks to a list of AsRock’s motherboards it seems Intel’s 13th gen will still come with the hybrid DDR4 & 5 support.
Probably because the supply of DDR5 still hasn’t gotten to where it needs to be.
And ofc because DDR5 is still about 50-75% more expensive than DDR4 with small performance gains.
And personally I’d much rather have 64 gigs of DDR4 than 32 gigs of DDR5 for like the same price.
