AMD will package Ryzens sold on December into bigger Wraith Max boxes. The CPU is the same usual but you will have even better boxed cooler than before.
This is a Christmas time campaign only.
Wraith Max has been sold as a separate item before with the price tag of 22 USD.
All RAM is expensive though. Was kinda looking to build a new desktop since my current one dates back to 2012. I paid around €40 for 8GB of RAM back then. Imagine my shock when I saw the current RAM prices. Gonna wait until next year and see what NAND prices do.

You can get similar value with 2133MHz CL15 RAM right now but current zen really needs good RAM to push those FPS as much as possible. You can get a 200ge with a B450 and upgrade to zen 2 later on, it's assumed their core latency problem will get resolved by then and better RAM won't improve much but it's a gamble at this point. That's what I'm gonna do anyway. Even if good RAM is still needed I'll still get like ~10% better (not accounting for IPC uplift) single threaded performance or better with zen 2 anyway.
