First seeing release as 16GB modules, we expect to see a wider range of capacities from at least 8GB to 32GB once the range has established itself, and hopefully up to the DDR5 maximum of 128GB on a single stick.

Sadly, the press release only mentions "modules from 8GB to 32GB capacities to choose from". Which is my biggest issue with DDR5: so far it offers the exact same capacities as its predecessor, except for at much higher prices. I've already had 128GB of DDR4 RAM (8x16GB) since ~2015, so naturally I'm not very enthusiastic about upgrading until either the prices drop drastically or they finally start selling 64GB sticks. I'd much prefer to upgrade with 2x64GB and later expand from there, especially since 8-slot HEDT motherboards seem to have died out since my last purchase.
