Is $140 a Good Price for 32GB DDR5 RAM at 6000MHz?
Asked by

I came across a listing for a 32GB DDR5 RAM kit (2x32GB, CL30, 6000MHz) from Corsair Vengeance or Kingston Fury Beast, priced around $130-$140. I'm trying to decide if this is a good deal or if I should wait until Black Friday for potentially better prices. What do you all think?

Being less than half the price of new RAM is risky, so just be careful—it might be a scam.

I own the same CL30 RAM, and the cheapest I've seen it is about $250 right now. That makes $140 look like an incredible deal!

I got that same RAM from Amazon for around $290 not long ago. If the seller is reputable, I’d jump on that deal! Prices can fluctuate a lot, as I noticed mine dropped unexpectedly.

I'd say yes, go for it! Just compare prices on Amazon or similar sites, and you'll see they’re usually around $100 more right now.

Wow, that price seems too good to be true, honestly. It almost sounds like a scam. Have you checked the seller's reviews?
+copper patina: Exactly! That's what I was thinking too.
Doppler.shift: I checked, and the site looks legitimate. But still, it makes me suspicious.

Given the recent price hikes on DDR5, I really doubt you’ll find something that cheap on Black Friday. It might be worth grabbing it now.
