Newegg is offering a combo deal bundling an MSI Ventus RTX 5070 Ti graphics card with a 64GB Kingston DDR5-6000 RAM kit for $1,769.99, representing a $650 savings off the items' combined individual prices.
The article attributes soaring PC component prices, especially for RAM and GPUs, to manufacturers prioritizing AI and data center markets, causing supply shortages and price hikes in the consumer space. It notes the RAM kit in this deal has recently retailed for as high as $1,349.99 alone.
The piece frames this bundle as a relative value within a currently inflated market, cautioning that prices for components like the RTX 5070 Ti are expected to rise further due to shipping shortfalls.
