I went to a pc building shop and the price of 64 RAM DDR5 was over $1000. I could have built an entire PC with that price a year ago.

$250 is a steal but i've not seen it below $500 which is a lot to spend on a cpu.

    I think I must have got it on sale or a very low point. Definitely was a nice upgrade! I had been non-seriously looking at 5950X or 5900XT as a sidegrade but I can't really justify that cost for something that is not a substantial upgrade, and now they seem to be totally out of stock anywhere I look. Oh well!
