The only place where you'll ever notice any difference between RAM generations is the specs sheet. And even there it's minor.
Intel and AMD - the entire x86 duopoly - is basically there specifically to ensure consumer PCs are as shit as possible, and to do everything in their power to slow down any meaningful technological progress.
Exactly, Intel dug their heels in and gave us quad core after quad core for the best part of 10 years whilst AMD was floundering around until Ryzen Gen 1 came along. No innovation just because they didn't have to.
