Can you test max achievable memory speed from this board? especially with Hynix Mdie/Adie

Asus often does a non-WiFi version of the Prime boards, usually around $20 less. I also bemoan the disappearance of optical, but I suppose between USB, HDMI, and BlueTooth there isn’t much reason to include it on new equipment. I don’t agree, but there it is.

I have an ASUS PRIME Z390-A and was looking at this board along with a 13th Gen processor as an upgrade, but the lack of optical out is a deal killer for me and I have no use for the WiFi. I’ll probably just use the PRIME Z690-A (with updated BIOS).
