How is that going to work and how will end users be able to know that they can't plug a 5+ watt card on a incompatible housing ? Or do they negotiate over some bit so the card knows if it can boost beyond 5 watts or not ?

Yea I guess 2400mhz ddr4l would consume about as much as 1600mhz ddr3l on the same number of channels. But it probably would be of little benefit

eoma68 anyway since the SoCs in use will probably reach the next
bottleneck
well before 2400 mhz 128 bit ddr4 memory bandwidth gets saturated.
we did work out a system of "power negotiation with the chassis" for the next revision of the EOMA68 standard: it becomes the responsibility of the housing to get rid of heat, basically, when power is permitted to go above 5.0 watts.
