Gamers who wish to build a new gaming PC will definitely have to hunt for exciting deals, considering the sky-high prices right now. For such folks, Newegg is currently offering an enticing 45% discount on a X870E-Plus motherboard and 32 GB V-Color Manta XSky memory combo.

In these trying times, finding decent gaming hardware at tolerable prices can be a challenge of massive proportions. Memory prices have skyrocketed in the last few quarters, and storage prices have followed suit. However, finding attractive bundle deals is still very much possible - not unlike to the one we're about to cover right now.

A great foundation for a high-end AMD build

Newegg has slashed a whopping 45% off the Asus TUF Gaming X870E-Plus WiFi 7 motherboard and V-Color XSky 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5 RAM kit, saving buyers over $370. At the bundle's current limited-time price of just $450, there is surely a lot of value to be extracted out of this deal.

The Asus TUF Gaming X870E-Plus motherboard is a very decent product, although its VRM temperatures will leave overclockers desiring for more, as pointed out by TechPowerUp's in-depth review. However, normal consumers will definitely be pleased enough with the board, courtesy of its array of USB ports, Type-C power delivery support, and overall quality of the hardware and software - such as its wonderful EFI which TechPowerUp liked quite a bit.

Hynix ICs for great overclocking potential

The V-Color Manta Sky 2x16 GB DDR5-6400 memory kit, on the other hand, boasts impressive overclocking potential and excellent performance, as revealed by Overclockers' review of the kit. This is in no small part thanks to the utilization of Hynix ICs. All told - folks who like to squeeze every ounce of performance out of their memory sticks will definitely be quite pleased with this kit.

As a whole, the bundle appears to be a decent start for a high-end AMD-based build. Those with tame expectations as far as VRM temperatures are concerned, will likely be very well-served by the duo. That said, customers will obviously have to supply their own CPU, GPU, and storage (2 TB Samsung 9100 Pro is currently $417 on Amazon).
