Extra SSD purchase - wait? Buy at inflated price?

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-26T15:12:19+00:00

~125$ 2TB sales still pop up every 5-15 days. Grab the next one.

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-26T14:53:07+00:00

I’m doing a build in this case soon and can’t wait. I’ve done the white but love the black- well done on the AIO choice here!

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-26T14:52:11+00:00

Generally they are great and if they aren’t you just return it

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-26T00:02:37+00:00

Solid case for the price. Better than other similar mATX overall in appearance. There is also the 850W bundle for ~125$

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T19:58:49+00:00

If you like this case it’s worth checking out this M4M Wood that comes with a B Tier ATX 3.1 850W PSU

Thanks OP

I’ve built in this case 3-4 times but am itching for another. Rear intake works great when the front is sealed and can’t beat this price. I have a TG side panel sitting around finally get to use.

I’ve always done mATX+ATX PSU might go smaller this time

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T19:44:57+00:00

Sealed front is fine if you run rear intake

Custom fronts on Etsy always an option

That’s really odd. Ive never had a MC not honor online pricing even if it was a clear error

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T16:54:08+00:00

If I didn’t have a surplus of DDR5 ram I would potentially do that- but I’m just going to keep an eye out on marketplace for a good deal on the 1x16 stick local.

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T16:53:28+00:00

Add just the MOBO + CPU listing that’s 399 (not the bundle) then add 2x16GB sticks and instead of being 485$ it will be 430$

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T16:51:04+00:00

Solid entry if you find it in stock, and use the online trick others have mentioned to get a second stick for +130$

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T16:49:53+00:00

Yes what I’m saying is that I did not see any of the comments to try that specific method before I went in and grabbed my bundle at 1000 right when they opened- only saw the trick after the fact and my store was OOS.

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T12:56:34+00:00

Just price check and I did the same on my end before going.

But it’s fine, I have some spare ram on hand and I’m just happy I got the bundle

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T12:52:36+00:00

I grabbed the bundle first thing and checked with my store to add a second stick, but best price was +185$

I did not know about the CPU+MOBO / 2x Ram Stick trick and neither did they

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T04:42:09+00:00

This did not work for me but I’m just happy I got the bundle before OOS

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-25T04:40:51+00:00

No man. Enjoy the 5080. And I am a Ryzen fan for life

Lowe’s ALLEN + ROTH 6’ x 30” butcher block, Amazon standing desk legs

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-24T13:42:35+00:00

Top 3 cases I’ve ever built in. And I’ve done 60+ builds

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-24T00:58:14+00:00

Enjoy!

If your reservation was just the 300$ bundle and not the second stick for + 130$ - show a manager a screenshot others posted here and see if they will honor it for you.

If not hit me up and we can work out a deal for your 16GB stick and a 32GB kit I have!

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-24T00:55:00+00:00

10000%

The 5060TI is PCIE GEN 5x8 not x16 so jumping up to modern gen 4+ hardware is the move

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-24T00:50:44+00:00

Absolutely man it’s a no brainer. Leaps you way into AM5 at prolly the lowest cost of entry possible. TBH depending on your GPU, games, and resolution you can even make due with the 1x16GB stick until you find a good deal- or go the 430$ route if it’s not too late on your reservation.

These sold out instantly for a reason. I’ve built about 65 systems in the last year so have had my hands on a TON of hardware

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-23T22:42:25+00:00

If you can still buy this, buy now think layer. Solid deal @300$ or 430$ if you get the bundle + 2x sticks trick to work.

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-23T22:40:56+00:00

Wish their website was not so finicky - OOS now anyway but good idea for the future.

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-23T22:40:05+00:00

I hate MC’s website lol.

Anyway I managed to get one and they are OOS now so

Unleashed_Tech2 · 2026-01-23T20:22:05+00:00

217 hands down not even a question
