DDR4 cheaper price vs DDR5 potential

Hi everyone, currently building my second PC since my first one is now 9 years old (G4560+1050Ti). Now I'm in the crossroad between DDR4 and DDR5: i5-14600K + 32GB D4 vs 7800X3D + 32GB D5, to pair with RTX 5070.

In my country, D5 combo should cost ~13% more in term of total budget, so I wonder if it is worth the money, like how % performance more should I get.

My usage will mostly gaming: AAA games and esports (non-competitive tho since I'm quite old for that lol). Currently using 1080p screen but maybe I will upgrade to 1440p later.

Thank you guys in advance!
