Since neither the title nor the body mention the most important detail for ram: its 32gb (16x2)

Not even remotely good. Even Black Friday and Cyber Monday the deals won't be any better. The AI bubble needs to burst ASAP and no bailouts for these tech companies pursuing a fad with a ponzi scheme.

Miss the dirt-cheap Fry's Electronics cpu/mobo combos from decade's past, back when their purchasing manager was getting kickbacks on the side.

Kit is 32GB (2x16) per above, and the OP specs list it as DDR5 6000 CL36. No cooler in the bundle either, so add one in when figuring what it actually saves.

I'm nervous one of my NAS drives will fail during this nonsense. I really don't want to pay 3x what I paid 2 years ago.

Solution: Don't upgrade. There's really nothing my Ryzen 5 3600X build from 2019 can't do. I did upgrade the video card on a sale a couple of years ago though.

Same. If you already have something decent that's working and reliable, taking the long game and waiting for the AI bubble to burst makes more sense. In your case, I might recommend upgrading the cpu in your rig to a 5000 series though. They've gotten pretty affordable so long as you're not trying to get one of the "gamer" labeled x3d versions. 5600x and 5700x are very affordable.

I agree with the 5700X as a great upgrade from 3000 series for most people.

But I've already got a desktop I built for work when the 5800XT was on sale last year. So I'll switch which machine I'm using when I can actually tell a difference between them. Chances are, the PCIe Gen 4 TLC NVMe SSD in my 3600X build makes up for any snappiness disadvantage because the other one's running on SATA, IIRC (already had a 1TB SATA SSD laying around).
