I found rare DDR5 RAM deals for up to $350 off during Amazon's Spring Sale
Sky-high AI-driven RAM prices see relief with major discounts on Corsair and Kingston kits.
ZDNET staff writer Taylor Clemons has identified a series of significant discounts on DDR5 RAM during Amazon's ongoing Spring Sale, offering a rare reprieve from the current 'RAM-pocalypse.' Driven by soaring demand from AI companies and data centers, PC component prices have seen triple-digit percentage increases in recent months, pricing many gamers and DIY builders out of the market. The sale features kits from major manufacturers like Corsair and Kingston, with savings reaching up to $348 on high-capacity modules.
Among the standout deals is the Kingston Fury Beast 64GB DDR5 kit, now priced at $879—a $348 discount from its original $1,227. This high-performance kit offers a base speed of 4,800MHz, overclockable to 6,400MHz, and is certified for both AMD Expo and Intel XMP profiles. For users seeking RGB lighting, the Corsair Vengeance RGB RS 32GB kit is available for $370 (saving $136), featuring speeds up to 6,000MHz. A non-RGB, AMD Expo-certified Corsair Vengeance 32GB kit is also listed at $460. For those not using Amazon, Best Buy is noted to have similar deals on RAM for both desktops and laptops.
