I am happy I could still get it in red 😋

Original RAM was Ballistix Sport LT 16GB Kit (8GBx2) DDR4 2400 MT/s (PC4-19200), while my new sticks are TeamGroup T-FORCE VULCAN Z 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3600MHz CL18.

When I built my 5930K system, I paid about 400 bucks for 16 GB of DDR 4. Years later when DDR 4 was finally mainstream, I was able to upgrade to 32 GB for a bit over $100.

Exactly the same for me with my 5820K system! Just upgraded to a 7900X 10 years later, and only because of failing RAM and it was CPU-bottlenecked in a few games.
