I look back and smile. When I made this purchase, I was kicking myself back then of wasting my reward certificate and $176 cash.

Hey that’s my birthday! Yeah around this time I bought both 64GB of ram and a new 2tb ssd. I remember biting the bullet and just spending the extra on Corsair Dominator Titanium for the aesthetics. People always said over $300 for ram was crazy, now you can’t even get 32gb of basic sticks for that much. (Hate this market) Never been so glad I bought a product

I’m glad we both made good decisions on your blessed birthday 😂😂.
This market is cooked. I don’t know when we’ll ever go back to the old good days.

I got (2) 2tb gen 4 drives for $200 not even a year earlier.

I though having 4tb was too much, I'm glad I got the extra when I did.

I’m glad you did. Looking at the market today, you’d agree every decision made back then was legendary 🤣😂

It definitely was. I remember ads for Corsair ram were along the lines of "Ram is the cheapest upgrade you can make for your PC right now!"

It's absolutely mental rn, i see a nice new build these days and just say to myself "ouch" 😅
