So I read on here about the price of ram going up but I didn't quite think it would be as dramatic as it turned out to be.

I checked on how much my ram is to buy today compared to when I bought it

This was in March

This was today

Insane!

How much is your ram today?

$650 paid $105

How much I bought it for.... Notice I purchased 2 sets:

What Just one set is worth today:

My ram is 8000 ( or 7800? I forgot but it can reach 8000 for sure ) cl36 I bought when the high speed ram was starting to roll.

Some dude sold them to me for 100$ Canadian ( 70 US ?) ( 16x2 gigs g.skill )


Was not very happy because it was cl36 . But now ? Lol I am praying they never die on me . Because if they do. I am not buying ram or changing PC parts for the next 2 years till all the crazy shit stops. I am not paying these shitty prices. This will include GPUs and CPUs too.

If Nvidia wants to ride the wave of 'let's increase prices and offer a 6090 for $2500,' they can shove it.

I have the 5090FE at MSRP, and I still think I am stupid for paying that much to play a couple of games on high settings.

Path tracing can fuck off. Along with any unoptimized game that require a 5090 power when it runs like shit even at 4k dlss with no ray tracing

My DDR4 is selling for double what I paid for it. Ya I know DDR4 but WTF??!?!?!

Lmao, Jesus Christ, last year I ordered 64GB of G.SKILL Ripjaws S5 DDR5 RAM. The total was $200.25, now it's showing $709.99 but it's on sale for $699.99.

God this is so stupid.

Who remembers what kind of RAM they have without having to pull up a receipt? Please check in. I'm curious. I couldn't tell you what kind of RAM I have if you offered me a billion dollars.

32GB DDR5 that came in a 7800x3D bundle at MicroCenter.

 

[Randall365]

I'm still on AM4 with 16GB of DDR4 3200. I've felt no need to upgrade my 5600x. I had a 9700x but there wasn't enough of an upgrade and I went back to my 5600x.

 

[ReyBrujo]

Got 4x16gb DDR4 3200Mhz in my machine, right now in Argentina those are usd 350. No idea how much I paid them, bought them 6 years ago.

No one knows. Plenty assume the bubble will burst at some point.

 

[TonberrysKnife]

[FoxMcChief]

Isn't it free for everyone?

I still can't believe this is a thing.

 

[Alexios]

Y'all wanna be mad? Grabbed these just before the RAM craze. In addition to 6000 MHZ and RGB. They're ECC and CL30 as well.

[Audiophile]

Built my Dad a PC with G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5-5600 and a nice CPU, GPU etc. and he's spent most of his time playing Russian Fishing 4.

The RAM is going for £250 per 16GB.

Might have to go rob a stick, probably wouldn't even notice...
