Question Motherboard that supports my components?

[ju1c3]

Can someone list me some motherboards that support DDR5 Ram but also a 5950X? I can only find Motherboards on amazon that support DDR5 but only 7000 series processors. (amazon only and under $300 if possible)

None. They do not exist and they will never exist.

Wait, so in order to use DDR5 You must use 7000 series cpus or higher?

You aren't going to find that via standard channels:

AMD Ryzen™ 9 5950X | Gaming Desktop Processors | AMD

Check under technologies/connectivity.

No joke, might look around on Ali Express to see if there is some whack-a-do Chinese motherboard that "supports" it. I would not hold out hope that it has great support though.

Correct.

Or have a Zen 6000 series laptop. Zen 3+ architecture allowed DDR5, but that that won't have any effect on a 5950X.

Ah, whoops I accidentally bought DDR5 without looking into it, I'll just return it tomorrow.
