No point until there’s affordable consumer DDR6.
And CAMM modules, if I were to bet.
And that’s fine. PCIE5 is still underutilized, and big L3 cache can sort-of compensate for RAM speed.
CAMM for desktop form factor? Why
Well because the same advantages for mobile platforms translate to desktop.
Better signal integrity, higher speeds, lower latency and specifically for desktop better airflow in the case (+coolers no longer have to clear the height of the dimm).
Downsides are ramm problem diagnosis and upgradabillity (have to buy a whole new module can't partially upgrade like with dimm).
