Yeah they're coming down fast. Summer was always the target as launch gets close.
Keeping my eyes peeled for sure.

EVGA B stock prices are down too. $899 for a 3080ti and $1099 for 3090

Not bad. I've seen 3070's for ~$579 lately.

BestBuy for example sell 32GB Corsair Vengeance 5600 CL36 for $239. And I don't want any of the RGB nonsense for my ram so if I can scoop that at $199 here soon I'll cop that one.
I don't see 32GB of the faster lower cas variety getting too much cheaper than that.

Do you have a system now that can take DDR5 to ensure you don't have bad DIMMs?

That isn't even the highest tier DDR5. Team Group is selling their newer DDR4 Creator Expert Series RAM with CL 14 14-15-15-35 timings, the 32 GB version (2x16) at $229.
Idk how anyone can justify DDR5 right now until the prices go down, unless your simply just going for a brand new build altogether with the new Intel CPUs.
EDIT: Completely off-topic, anyone have any recommendations for HDMI/Display Port switchers? I would like to get one for my desk setup at home to switch between my home PC setup and work PC setup, without having to use the monitor buttons to switch between the 2.

Huh?

I'm a dummy - misread your CAS Latency 
You're referring to the CL36 36-36-36-76 at DDR5-5600 model right? For 32 GB that is one of the best prices I've seen for DDR5.
But do you really need 32 for gaming?

Ah okay no worries.
No I'd rather just get 16GB but DDR5 is mainly 32GB. Very few 8GB modules.
Newegg for example only shows 9 total 16GB kits, and they're C40 and almost as much as 32GB.

As a random aside, I have that kit, and it’s gorgeous. Running 3800 14-14-14-28 with significantly tightened tertiary timings. Takes 1.52v like a fricking champ. It could likely do better, but my 5800x starts throwing WHEA errors if I push my IF from 1900 to 2000, and I don’t want to break 1:1.

Its tempting me every day, and I'm telling myself I dont need it
I'm running a 16 GB DDR4-3200 CL16 kit at stock XMP 16/18/18/74 timings currently

Big dick ram is literally never a need. It’s an “I’m willing spend a couple hundred bucks to increase performance single digits because I can” kinda thing
With that said, my 1% lows have gone up considerably, which is very noticeable. And overclocking top bin b-die is just fricking fun
Eta: this is the kit we are talking about, for those playing the home game: TEAMGROUP T-Create Expert overclocking 10L Samsung B-Die DDR4 32GB Kit (2 x 16GB) 3600MHz (PC4 28800) CL14 Desktop Memory Module Ram - TTCED432G3600HC14CDC01 LINK

I'm on 3400 CL14 for DDR4. It's a solid 5 years old, been great ram.
But it's DDR5 time soon.

Honestly, if I were buying into DDR5, I would get 32gb. Which should be obvious that I bought 32gb of DDR4 a few months ago, but still
I’ve had a few games already flirt you to about 14gb, so if I’m buying a new kit, I would rather have the headroom for the next few years.

Yeah like I said above they don't really make DDR5 in 8GB sticks for 16GB.
You really only have a choice for 32GB.
400 kits of 16GB sticks x2 for 32GB, 9 total kits and two are ECC for 8GB sticks x2.

Ever wanted a case with a monitor mount?

I've actually been looking at doing something like that DIY

I want to hear what I imagine is a staggeringly specific use case to even make you consider that
Posted on 6/23/22 at 3:45 pm to Joshjrn
I have absolutely no reasoning behind it, I just wanted to do it
The only reason I didn't was because there weren't any halfway decent cases with a handle that didn't have a glass side panel. I was going to use a 1440p/144hz laptop display as a monitor mounted in the side panel
