A Stoner I misread the title. I thought it said FAR below MSRP... Oh well, still looks like a pretty good deal. I am still eyeing replacing my 7950X3D with 9950X3D sometime in the future.Reply -
Minus_i7 The combo deal mentioned in paragraph 4 seems really good. It's approx. $60 off the 9800x3d with an x870 motherboard, and then both 32 gigs of ram and a terabyte Kingston SSD thrown in for free. Just $700 total for all that is a steal.Reply -
lmcnabney Combo seems a bit nonsensical. Anyone buying an Aurus Elite and a 9800X3D would be stupid to pair it with CL36 RAM. I have the same complaint about Microcenter bundles. Why spend money on a good chip and board when you will cripple the performance with high latency RAM? If you want CL30 RAM in your system you will just throw the bundled RAM in the trash or try to resell it.Reply
