rmorse27I just returned my 12700k Asus 2690 and my 980 Samsung m.2 drive for lack of ram not going to sit on $1000 in parts waiting for ram, when it becomes avalable will buy ram first.

NazcaC2All I'm waiting for now is to get the LGA 1700 bracket. I just reached out to NZXT but don't know when I can expect it quite yet.Manufacturers are already hurting in sales across the board due to supply issues.
GloR1ouS_Honestly I think people are jumping the gun really hard on unoptomized ddr5 kits. Sure theres some performance uplift, but its not as ground breaking as the CPU itself. Ddr4 will serve you just fine and in most real world tasks ddr5 boasts no difference. Not only is DDR5 not available but motherboards themselves are not available in DDR4. There are more DDR5 boards due to no ram. If you do the math, a good DDR5 board plus DDR5 just doesnt make sense. May as well buy a scalped gpu at that price premium.

You mean the increased price of the high end boards? There’s always a premium for the new high end stuff. Otherwise yeah stock is hard to find but it’s findable. I’ll be picking up a some XPG LANCER DDR5 tomorrow so just keep looking and you’ll find some.

I’ll be picking up a some XPG LANCER DDR5 tomorrow so just keep looking and you’ll find some.I’ve seen that RAM online from several retailers, but it’s sold out. Same with every other stick of DDR5. For days, I’ve been scouring the Internet and places like Micro Center or Best Buy to no avail. I’ve even called local computer shops, and they laugh when I ask if they have any. You say it’s findable, so I’m asking where can it be found at this point?

You say it’s findable, so I’m asking where can it be found at this point?I’m in Canada and MemoryExpress managed to get some in though it quickly went out of stock. I ended up calling every local store and put a hold on every combo of DDR5 for when it came in stock and Memexpress apparently got some in Wednesday. I’ll be picking it up later today.So yeah it’s hard to find but if anywhere let’s you put a hold on it or let’s you pre-order I suggest doing so.Just gotta get lucky with the timing
