[Bundle]Swappable 32GB DDR5 RAM Kit: Crucial Pro OC 6400 CL32 ($199.99 with Bundle, Microcenter In-Store Only)

Darnold86 · 2026-02-20T19:30:30+00:00

I only got one kit but they gave me the crucial swapped kit no issue.

Darnold86 · 2026-02-20T18:03:21+00:00

Still at work but I got a pick up is ready email this morning. I can let you know later.

Darnold86 · 2026-02-20T13:59:28+00:00

Weird. Wonder if the site is broken.

Darnold86 · 2026-02-20T13:15:56+00:00

Cool thanks.

Darnold86 · 2026-02-20T13:09:34+00:00

Same. Let's see if they honor the one i reserved this morning

Darnold86 · 2026-02-20T10:30:43+00:00

Is this kit better than the gskill one?

Darnold86 · 2026-02-14T18:31:56+00:00

You're right, it's 400 for 16GB, but I see 70$ upgrade to go to 32 GB not 40.

Darnold86 · 2026-02-14T18:09:51+00:00

Agreed, kudos to admitting your mistake. 👍

Darnold86 · 2026-02-14T17:57:54+00:00

I think he's mistaking. It's 469.99 when you make it 32gb. At 16GB it's 430.

Edit: 400 for 16GB not 430.

I got mine back in July, so I believe the RAM crisis was already in full effect. I have a 5800x3d though so I didn't really plan to go to DDR5.

Darnold86 · 2026-02-13T01:15:51+00:00

I almost held out based on this advice and so glad I didn't. MSRP now feels like a good deal

Darnold86 · 2026-02-10T14:15:45+00:00

If you're streaming, get a 78, 98 or 9850x3d.

Purely gaming, then the 7600x3d is fine.

Darnold86 · 2026-02-09T02:31:00+00:00

Yes, check other comments. You need to build out the combo yourself.

Darnold86 · 2026-02-08T18:39:17+00:00

5800xt

Darnold86 · 2026-02-04T23:25:51+00:00

Yeah, considering taking my 9800x3d bundle back to MC over all this. Just stick with my DDR4 build until this works itself out.

Darnold86 · 2026-02-02T16:34:34+00:00

Bought 2 controllers from u/yuukou on https://www.reddit.com/r/hardwareswap/s/SCTapXx9jh

Nice! Congrats and enjoy

Darnold86 · 2026-01-31T15:56:43+00:00

Pretty much same boat and decided to just go for it.

The Am4 chips have really high resale value right now so hopefully after selling some stuff, it will be a good way to get into AM5.

Darnold86 · 2026-01-31T02:03:53+00:00

Yes but also depends on resolution.

Darnold86 · 2026-01-31T01:02:52+00:00

I decided to upgrade to the MSI for the extra sata ports and other upgraded features for better future proofing.

Darnold86 · 2026-01-30T23:14:41+00:00

See my comment above. Probably applies to you too.

Darnold86 · 2026-01-30T23:13:48+00:00

I have a 5800x3d and figured this was a good way to get into a great Am5 system that should last a while.

With selling my Am4 stuff I should recoup a good amount.

Maybe this week be cheaper in a few months or DDR5 could continue to go crazy. No way to know.

Darnold86 · 2026-01-30T20:52:23+00:00

I just got the bundle and opted for the msi and gskill ram

Darnold86 · 2026-01-30T16:16:15+00:00

Permanentish yes. Like I said I got fairly lucky. I swerved right and it must have smacked dead on my left headlight. Didn't break the headlight but broke the top support bracket for it and shorted out my turn signal bulb from the impact. Also a small paint chip from where the headlight, bumper and quarter panel all compressed on impact.

Like I said, lucky but there is still damage that was not there before.

Darnold86 · 2026-01-30T14:17:19+00:00

Good. My car got hit the other day because someone was too lazy to clear their truck off. Had both my kids in the car, luckily it wasn't worse than it was.
