My friend bought what he thought was 16GB ddr5 for $50, but turned out to be 10 sets for $500. Now they’re selling for about $250 each. Everything is insane!

Recently upgraded my servers. 256GB ddr5 each. Was 1600 moneyz altogether. Now, not half a year later, the exact same ram is 6400 now.
I bought twice the amount by accident and sent half of it back…for which I now bit my left nut off…could’ve been a free bunch of gaming PCs.

Totally bonkers, yes. But chill! It all will relax in the near future and go down to just 200% more expensive than before. And then stay there. And we will be happy-ish.

Oof, you lucky dog. Except the last part, but that’s just the difference between being just lucky and being really fucking lucky.

Oh yeah lucky! I evened out fate, as I waited to finally buy my GPU at the absolute peak for an insanely outrageous price only to see it fall day by day since then.
So, I’m kinda at zero (dis-)advantage now 😁
