So, much like everyone else in this rapidly changing tech world, I’m gradually putting together my initial project. I chose 32GB of Crucial Ballistix 3600 CL16 RGB White RAM because it strikes a balance—neither too bulky nor overly flashy, aside from the color. It’s been out of stock for about a month now but is finally back at Microcenter. Can you help me understand why the white version costs $191 while the identical black model is only $99? I’m aware of the RGB and white pricing differences, but it still feels unfair. At some point, price increases should be considered excessive, right?

It's not just about the hue and RGB values. The memory units in each package might vary significantly, with one option costing more than the other.
