The horse is dead about DDR5 pricing being high; stop beating it. The prices are not prohibitively high compared to equivalently-sized DDR4, and I've located TeamGroup 32GB kits under $100.
And AM5 motherboards are indeed pricey, but AM4 motherboards have also started going up in price considerably as supply dwindles. We're not far from the point where a quality B650 motherboard + 32GB DDR5 costs about the same as a quality B550 motherboard + 32GB DDR4. Maybe 3 months at most.
