Community Reviews

This bundle is a gaming focused build anchored by a strong 9800X3D, but the rest of the parts make it feel badly balanced for the $2,800 price. The 128GB DDR5 kit and 4TB NVMe are the headline extras, yet the RTX 5070 12GB is repeatedly seen as too weak for the money, especially beside that much memory. The same memory is also viewed as hard to resell at the implied value, with recent sale examples far below the bundle math. It reads like a RAM heavy package that only makes sense if you truly need the capacity.

Common Questions (5)

  • The RAM is the main value driver, but selling it quickly at the hoped-for price looks difficult. One kit sold for $900 after more than a month, and another 64GB kit only moved at $450 after 3 weeks, so a $2,000 resale is not realistic for most buyers.

  • The RTX 5070 is widely seen as the weak point here because it is only a 12GB card and not a 5070 Ti or 16GB-class GPU. For a gaming build at this price, the GPU is considered underpowered compared with the rest of the parts.

  • It is hard to justify at $2800 unless you specifically want the 128GB RAM and 4TB NVMe. The 9800X3D is a strong gaming CPU, but the plain RTX 5070 and the oversized memory make the build feel imbalanced for the price.

    NeatField3352bob151VelocityRaptor

  • Not really, because the 9800X3D is a 8-core gaming-focused CPU and the 128GB RAM is overkill for most gaming builds. For production work, the comments suggest a higher-core CPU such as a 16/32-class chip would fit better.

    NeatField3352GrandmasterBBCFrank_Nitty

  • Yes, unless you genuinely need both 128GB of RAM and 4TB of NVMe storage. For typical gaming builds, the memory and storage are seen as the parts inflating the bundle more than improving value.

Too much ram and not enough GPU for gaming. Not enough CPU for productivity. Sounds like Newegg sees memory prices are going to crash and doesn't want to get stuck holding the bag.

It looks like memory prices are falling so I wouldn't buy RAM and NVME heavy bundles. If you're building a gaming PC you'll need a 16GB video card like 5070 TI or 9070 XT - minimum.
Exactly. What they're trying to do here is offload their RAM before prices fall.

Unless someone genuinely requires 128GB of ram and genuinely requires 4TB NVMe (thought I'll admit this is a very nice to have), this is kinda a poor deal.

That GPU has only 2 fans and is $579 at my local MC and they have 25+ in stock.

Great deal. You can sell the RAM alone for at least $2,000 and end up with a great gaming cpu, decent gpu, and a 4tb ssd for $800. Thats not even including the lower ticket items like a few cheap games and basically everything else needed for a computer.This basically gets you a great mid tier system for about $1,000 plus some frebies.
Lmao no one is paying 2k for ram

Find me a buyer for that ram at 2k and I'll stock up on this bundle. Last month I had this exact ram kit listed for 900 and it took over a month to finally sell.
This month you would be lucky to get 700

128gb RAM paired with a crappy 8 core cpu? 😂 I mean its great for gaming, but for production, the cpu is almost useless. The 12gb vram is also too low for a gaming cpu at this price. Just a very overpriced, lopsided build... should of had a 9950x3d or cut the RAM in half and lower the price a lot.
It's not about the cores for gaming, it's all about the X3D

This is one of those deals that looks great at first glance (128GB RAM? Wow!), and then sours quickly with a little thought. I think they're hoping the RAM/storage/GPU price gouging has numbed everyone to jump on the mere possibility of a deal.
For giggles, I checked Ebay for 128GB DDR5 kits. There are plenty on sale for $1k-1.5k, but almost all have 0 bids and less than 10 "watchers".
Also, the SSD is Gen4 and between 1/3-2/3 the rated read/write speed of Gen5 options.
And I know it's personal bias, but every MSI product I have ever owned has died prematurely. The last time I grabbed some components at MicroCenter I asked one of the reps about MSI's track record. They said they get the most returns on MSI motherboards by a wide margin (his recollection was that their current return stock was 35 MSI, 14 Gigabyte, and 3 Asus).
Every time I see a NewEgg bundle, I assume there's a deal-breaking catch. If you follow tech and see a hardware scandal, like exploding power supplies or products caught falsely advertising on their packaging, you can bet NewEgg will toss that into a bundle by the end of the week. (Sad to think I used to exclusively get PC components from them.)

*Note, some assembly required.
Newegg is dumping the harder to move, overpriced 2x64 GB kits before they drop over the next few months. Also, RTX 5070 works out overpriced as well in this bundle. Normal Newegg moves here.

I had a hard time selling 64gb G.SKILL ARGB for $500 so after 3 weeks I finally got rid of it for $450. People ain't paying those insane prices for ram.
They definitely are not, other than the relatively low volume of rubes on fleabay. Local, for builds I do, it's still $100 for 16GB, $200 for 32GB, and $450 would be fair for the nicer 64GB kits right now. By end of summer we'll be near half those prices. I still do lower spec OEM modules for most builds now, sourced from before the grift.

Has anyone actually tried selling ram at the inflated prices we see daily? I have many 64gb 6400cl32's that cant get half of new retail. Same w 32's. I'll put them in sys but I'd love to know where and who is paying these crazy number$
