Yeah, seems a nice option for those who may want to upgrade CPU and re-use their DDR4. And a DDR4 setup can still be high-end in particular for gaming for quite some time.

Personally, I am still with DDR3 and upgrading to DDR4 would be a significant improvement. But at this point I will wait a little longer and likely go straight for DDR5 including one of the soon to be released mainboards having PCIe 5.0 for M.2 SSD. The way I see it, with such a setup I will have plenty of bandwidth there for years, which should be able to easily handle newer CPU and GPU without it getting bottlenecked.
