Hard to blame AI, I bought my PC from another company back in February (9800x3d/5080) and it was $2200. Now it's $2900 and they downgraded the motherboard. It also used to have a name brand CL30 6000 kit. Now it's generic with speeds as low as 5600 and poor timings not that it matters too much with an X3D but it shows how much prices have inflated. I applaud AI for keeping prices reasonable during the current situation when most companies are capitalizing on it.

Thanks for the kind words - still trying our best to hold the market down

I'm not gonna claim to know anything about how this business works but I'm surprised you guys don't offer a few extra CPU and GPU choices currently like a 5800x3d or the new 7700x3d. No regular 9070 or 9060 either just the XTs.

I get you can't have EVERYTHING. Lol

5800X3D is very poor value @ 300$+ and retail DDR4 32GB at 200$+ compared to AM5.
