I dont bother with 4600 on Z690, its either highest on gear 1 or highest on gear 2, and my IMC is too low at gear 1 for this kit to get good latency.

Forgot to mention its on a 12600k so not as good an IMC as 12900k.

x600k and x700k have worse IMC than x900k, this build was only a stopgap to the 13900k anyway, and will replace my 10900k after (4k and 1440p builds). It will be running my e dies at 3733CL14 after the 13900k setup is done for the 4k build.

I was reconsidering for the 13700k instead as I dont need 16 e cores, but I need the 13900k IMC. The leaked videos for 13900k show golden bins and only +100 Mhz overclock, so 13700k is going to be using all the crap silicon. Have to pay for a load of useless e cores just to get good IMC.
That makes sense as to running the highest in a gear. It's a shame that 4800/CL16 (impressive btw) yields a latency of 67. I don't need any e-cores. I've disabled all the e-cores and clock the ring higher. I wonder what 4800/CL16 would run with a higher ring clock. My interest in a 13900k would be a more refined IMC that could run DDR4 at a higher frequency/lower latency. Please post your experiences when you land your 13900. I'm not sold on DDR5 and will wait a few years for the maturity, performance, and price improvements.
