DDR5 availability?
I just ordered the parts for my first build in over a decade (i7-12700, Z690), but I can’t find DDR5 for purchase, anywhere. Is this just a case of “wait a few days”, or am I going to be as hard pressed to find some as I was for my GPU?

Who knows. DDR5 could be the next thing in line for chronic supply shortages. It doesn't help that Alder Lake is turning out to be a significant performance increase.
I think at minimum it'll be sold out for a few weeks, but could be possibly months. I know the supply of DDR5 is pretty low, and demand will be high.
