The maker of modular, repairable laptops says it's had to de-list separate memory purchases in order to keep supply for its pre-build customers, too.

Yeah that was a pretty big sale price over what was typically $160 before tax/shipping.

I paid $200 on a set a couple weeks before your one with similar specs but better voltage which was right around the 9800x3d launch. My motherboard was like $300 too for an x870.

    You might have gotten the better deal. I was tight on money, so I got a $200 B650 board. I was worried about the ASRock voltage issues, but no problems so far.

    That said, even the $190 that my kit was at full price is ridiculously better than $250 for half the capacity and lower speeds.
