Comment on An entire PS5 now costs less than 64GB of DDR5 memory, even after a discount — simple memory kit jumps to $600 due to DRAM shortage, and it's expected to get worse into 2026

I’m really glad I met my memory needs last year. The price is completely unjustifiable. AI will blow over (revert to reasonable expectations) and when it does, hopefully there will be something left of the market so that we still have companies left to sell us RAM.

  It’s certainly not your fault. Nobody could have been certain prices would explode this much.

I mean, memory companies are like shovel sellers in a gold rush. They should be fine and dandy.

Yeah, I still can’t quite believe that I got 2x32 of 6400CL32 for $135 late last year. I had ordered 6000CL30 for $190, but it was taking a long time to ship, and then I saw the deal and cancelled the old order. Used up all my luck for this decade.
