If you're considering the 13700HX, it's definitely a good choice. However, there's a huge price difference, so I'd recommend going with the 13700H; it offers great value for your money.

Does anyone realize, why I7 13700HX just supports RAM DDR5 up to 4800 MHz but in I7 13700H it supports up to 5200 MHz?

Probably because the i7-13700HX supports triple the max RAM, so Intel had to compromise by slowing down the link speed slightly.

On paper... But in reality, the max frequency is 5600 MHz.
