Hey guys, I’ve got a batch 9 7640u DIY order

I’m a computer engineering student, hoping to be able to run a bunch of containers with an embedded hardware/firmware career path. CAD prices are roughly as follows. I can probably deal with 32GB but I do tend to like having 10 datasheets and a bunch of tabs open.

32GB CL46 - $137 32GB CL40 - $165 64GB CL46 - $237 64GB CL40 - $290

Where do you guys see the best value here?

64gb CL40 is 255CAD on amazon.

I'll be using my Framework for VMs mostly. 100% certain I won't be gaming with it. I'll be saving a few box going with the CL46. The bottleneck will never be the RAM in my use-case.
