B&H DDR5 Bundle Shows High Effective RAM Cost

Tom's Hardware reports a B&H bundle built around AMD's Ryzen 5 7600X, an Asus B650E motherboard, and a 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-6000 kit. The article frames the bundle as an affordable AM5 entry point, but also says the RAM portion effectively works out near $260 after accounting for the package value. For RamTrend, this is another consumer DDR5 pricing signal. Bundles can hide some of the sticker shock by combining CPU, motherboard, and memory, yet the implied cost of 16GB DDR5 still looks elevated in the current AI-driven component market.
