RAM is expensive right now, with 32GB of DDR5 costing $390 currently, so a Newegg combo deal that bundles RAM with other components is one of the best ways to pick some up for a new build or upgrade. Luckily, a deal we highlighted just last week is now even better value, combining the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D with 32GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 RAM and a Gigabyte X870E motherboard for $1,064.98.
● Check out this RAM combo deal at Newegg
This bundle is $45 cheaper than it was last week, but the price of each component means that you're effectively paying just $236 for the RAM here. That's $154 less than the cheapest 32GB DDR5 RAM kit you can buy right now. You're also getting a full, powerhouse kit of components here, with the RAM bundle joined up with the seriously impressive 9800X3D for a rig capable of gaming at 4K, as long as you've got a good enough GPU. There's even an $80 360mm AIO cooler thrown in for free, too.
The AI boom has seriously affected the market for PC components, so the value of that RAM can't be understated. That said, the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is a serious component in this bundle.Our CPU benchmark data shows just what this X3D chip can do. It was, until recently, the fastest gaming CPU you can buy, and it remains the best CPU for most gamers and our top pick. This Zen 5 CPU has eight cores, 16 threads, and comes with a boost clock speed of up to 5.2 GHz.All eight of its cores can access the boosted 96MB L3 cache. This 3D V-Cache technology is what makes all the difference for gaming, reducing the reliance on the slower system RAM and giving gamers the chance to play games at a higher, more stable frame rate compared to non-X3D chips.
