Should I buy

[xdeathshot20]

So my friend is offering to sell me a 16gb kit of corsair vengeance rgb memory running at 3000mhz.  Now granted my pc dosent support ddr4 but some time soon I do plan on building a new one so I can use it there or I could just flip it. Also he is selling it to me for $50 brand new just no box. Should I do it?

for $50???? I'd buy it as long as it works

i would not buy it without seeing it working (atleast a photo with some sort of proof that its exactly that kit)

I mean it's his "friend". He'll know where to find him.

If it works, that would be a pretty good deal.

depends on how he defines "friend" and you never know.

Thats an amazing deal you save 70 dollars. Id reccomend getting memtest86 on a flash drive and checking it has no errors. But its your friend so if something happens you can return it.

If it works that's a steal.  Paid more for my vengeance 8 gb kit.

Yea he said he just got it today from a garage sale he paid $25 for them. Was in the box and everything

If you are going to upgrade your system soon and you know there's nothing wrong with the kit then go for it but if you can't use it and you don't know when you'll be able to upgrade then I'd just say no. Sure it might save you a few $ down the road but if your next upgrade cycle is a few years away it's really not doing you any good.

I paid $95 cad ($75 usd) for 8 GB of Corsair LPX 2400 mhz, so it's good deal provided they work.
