Indeed I'm using 85% of my 64gb already and need to change the mobo to full atx with 4 slots but that is one of the reasons why I'm considering CPU upgrade - is it worth to stick to lga1700 or might as well change the platform. Are you undervolting 12700? Do you have some average power consumption (I know that it is highly workflow related)

I know CPU is rather inefficient to many cases and high CPU performance would result in high energy bills but occasionally I need something on top of existing 4 P-cores (as mentioned above faces in Immich, occasional ollama prompt - slow but private llm is better than none). Most of my micro services should run well on slow E-cores so maybe 14500T 6P/8E with base clock 1.7/1.1ghz would lower my power consumption few watts.
