Ryzen free ram
Okay, so they used to have G.Skill Flare X5 Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5-6000 PC5-48000 CL30 as part of the free ram deal, but now it's G.Skill Flare X5 Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5-6000 PC5-48000 CL36 which seems a little bit worse with the higher CAS latency timing. Can I just get the same amount of dollars off on a…

Does the microphone return policy apply to sealed product?
Quick question. I see that in the return policy that microphones are listed as not eligible for return. Looking at the list, it seems it's included as an unreturnable item due to hygienic concerns. I'm just looking for confirmation as to whether that applies to a microphone that is still sealed in the box, unopened.

Worth the upgrade?
Currently running a B360M with an i5-9600K. I've been looking for a CPU upgrade for a while. Would the i7-11700K and Z590 be good upgrades for $250? The system is currently used mainly for gaming. Any direction is appreciated.

Why can't I speak to the local builder?
Funny thing. All day long I get ads from PC builders trying to entice me to buy something. Now that I want to build something, I can't find a phone number to the local Micro Center builder. I went to the online PC builder and added the parts. It got confusing from there. It asked if I wanted "Same day assembly". I clicked…
