DDR5 out of stock everywhere I checked. It's a good build, but you might want to go with a DDR4 MB as a stopgap, if you could return yours that is. You won't be missing on that much performance out of the gate (usually about 5% performance, but in some applications it can be as high as 20%).
The supply might stabilize rather quickly, but it just seems like another opportunity for scalpers to make money.
