I'm looking to build a new PC, but the price of DDR5 memory is really high and making it tough to afford everything else. Has anyone had any success finding decent deals on DDR5 through sites like Temu or AliExpress?

Definitely check out channels like Toasty Bros; they often do AliExpress and Temu builds. Just be ready for mixed results, as you might find some gems but also some not-so-great parts. It's a bit of a gamble, honestly.
You might want to consider holding off a bit. The price hikes are frustrating, but some folks think it'll stabilize soon. In the meantime, you could check places like r/buildapcsales for any discounts that pop up; they often have good deals, but you need to act fast.
It's weird that you're looking to build a new rig but are struggling with RAM prices. Maybe rethink your budget? Also, those sites aren't always reliable for PC parts—some have had luck, but it's always a risk. Choose wisely!
I've noticed some sales that go quickly! Just keep your notifications on, and you might get lucky.
