At $345 for the RAM and $199 for the CPU (cheapest I could find) this is definitely a slick deal if you're looking to build a PC despite the current market prices of DDR5. Throw in the CPU cooler and it gets even better.
The 7600x and 9600x are pretty much the same, different is a bit less power consumption for the 9600x
This bundle gets you an additional SD card. if you need it, it's basically comes down to the same price
If you have a Micro Center around, it's typically a better bundle price. But this is pretty good for being online
You'd think a tech hub like Washington here in the PNW would have one, how do they survive having the lowest deals around? Fryz closed a long time ago and I don't think they had any crazy deals like Microcenter. It just boggles my mind how bestbuy still managed to survive. Not driving to Cali btw, I just don't get why we have to deal with overpriced components other than lobbying.

This post is def a deal especially due to the RAM having a lower CAS Latency than all of the ones I've seen so far being included in a CPU/motherboard bundle. If I was in the market for DDR5 RAM, I'd sell the CPU (and/or the other items included) in the secondhand market and recoup as much money as possible that was initially used to purchase the bundle. CL30 or less is the DDR5 hill I'm dying on.

Patriot is a hit an miss company. I have had memory from that that didn't work I had a nvme from them that didn't work but I also had memory that did work and the replacement nvme worked as well. The other deal was better cause I think it had way better memory. Who makes memory which only works with 14 gen Intel and AMD...
It was not a moot point. The OP posted this deal while the better front page deal was still active. And it's also important to know price history on same or similar items to evaluate a deal's value.
