its been this price since 2026 afaik. I started looking at this because B550 chipset and DDR4 ram is cheaper. i picked up a motherboard with wif6, bt 5.x, 2 nvme slots, and 2.5 gbs nic, alc1200 codec, robust and well cooled vrms made by asus. Its Tuf according to their marketing. $120. I could have went with less upgraded components for $80 if i went with Asrock. anyways this isnt an unusually great ptrice, but if you need a system now this cou + b550 motherboard + ddr4 will save considerable amount
