Hey everyone! I'm in the process of building a new PC and I've got the following parts lined up:
- AMD Ryzen™ 7 9800X3D socket AM5 for **448.96€**
- be quiet! Pure Loop 2 FX 360 mm Watercooling for **127€**
- GIGABYTE X870E AORUS ELITE WIFI7 socket AM5 for **301.7€**
- Kingston FURY 64 Go DDR5-6000 Kit for **309€**
- GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 5080 XTREME WATERFORCE 16G for **1499€**
- HYTE Y70 Touch Infinite for **418.41€**
- SAMSUNG 990 EVO PLUS 4 To SSD for **259€**
- be quiet! Power Zone 2 1000W for **169.9€**
That totals to **3532.97€**. I'm really curious if it's worth holding off until Black Friday for any sales. Based on your experiences, will prices drop significantly, or are we talking about minor discounts like 100€? I appreciate any advice you can share! Thanks!

One thing to consider is that there's also the risk of some of these parts going out of stock due to demand, especially during sales events.
Typically, Black Friday sales feature lower-end components. I doubt you'll find any great deals on your list, just a heads up.
Honestly, I don't think you'll see much of a price drop on high-end components like you're looking at. They'll likely stay around the same price.
In my experience, high-end parts don’t go on significant sales for Black Friday. Last year, I didn't see much on the stuff like GPUs or CPUs that are top-of-the-line.
That’s what I was afraid of. Thanks!

Thanks for the perspective!
