I'm considering buying a 9600X CPU paired with 32GB of 6000MHz RAM CL36 for $510. Do you think that's a good deal? I feel like it's decent, but maybe not the best option out there. What are your thoughts?

Dodge the stress about timing! I totally get it, building can be a race against the clock sometimes.
Honestly, that doesn't seem like a great deal. You can usually find that RAM for around $200-$250 on places like Facebook Marketplace or HardwareSwap. The CPU goes for about $180 on Amazon, so it might be cheaper if you piece it out instead of buying it as a combo.
If you're really set on that combo, you might find a slightly better price on Newegg. Plus, if you have an edu email, you could score a bit more of a discount there.
