I built my current PC the day that the AM5 platform released, for about $6k not including the 3090 I moved over from the previous rig. If I sold just the two sticks of RAM in it right now, it’d pay for nearly half of the total cost.

I bought a motherboard from Newegg in late 2024. It came with 16GB of RAM as a free "gift". The same RAM goes for $534 on Newegg today. It was $437 in January. Prices are still creeping up for this "throwaway" memory. I still have it, but never installed it because I only use ECC memory in my desktops. I'm saving it for a future Desktop in case memory prices never fall again.
