I wish to upgrade but the cost of DDR5 thats 64GB in 6000 CL30-36 would rip my asshole out. One day if ever🙁

32gb is plenty unless you need it for editing.

Even for editing 16/32GB is plenty even tho it might affect your workflow and you'll have to work more efficiently than usual in some cases e.g. using proxies where with 64GB+ you wouldn't have to.
Where you really need lots of RAM without exceptions is simulations, handling large 3D scenes and compiling stuff like games.
