As most are aware, the couple of months brought a sharp increase in memory prices, which could thwart plans to upgrade your system due to cost. With no end in sight, we’ve seen some combo deals here and there. Still, this one gets you a workable amount of RAM at reasonable speeds, an excellent, flagship-class motherboard we reviewed and included on our Best Motherboard list, and Newegg even throws in an air cooler to sweeten the pot. For $529.99 ($180 off), you get an ASRock X870E Taichi, 32GB (2x16GB) V-Color OLED XFinity+ DDR5-6000 CL30 RAM, and a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Spectrum V3 CPU air cooler free (a $39.99 value).
The included motherboard, ASRock’s X870E Taichi, we reviewed this board close to launch day. And found it to be one of the better motherboards available due to comprehensive specifications, solid all-around performance, and a reasonable price point for a flagship SKU. At the time we covered the X870E Taichi, it was $499.99, but now it is down to $329.99, which is an excellent deal on a loaded motherboard. The Taichi offers robust power delivery, dual USB4 (40 Gbps) ports, a premium audio solution with integrated DAC, ample storage with four M.2 sockets (one PCIe 5.0) and SATA ports, fast networking (5 GbE and Wi-Fi 7), and, of course, support for current and next-gen AM5 processors, including the 9850X3D we covered recently. So it not only supports today’s processors, but tomorrow’s too! It’s also found on our Best Motherboards list, too.

Newegg paired this combo with 32GB (2x16GB) V-Color OLED XFinity+ DDR5-6000 CL30 RAM. The main feature of this RGB RAM is the unique OLED display on one of the sticks that shows temperature and speeds. The SK Hynix-based kit runs at CL30-38-38-76 at 1.35V, which is right at AMD’s sweetspot. Usually priced at $379.99, the combo deal takes $180 off which puts these sticks under $200, a veritable steal for DDR5 today. These days, 32GB of RAM is enough for most users. You can efficiently run your game or applications and have a slew of browser tabs or other work open without writing out to the slower page file.
