Comment by ekropotin 4 months ago Can’t wait for all this cheap ddr5 memory and GPUs 8 comments ekropotin Reply jmspring 4 months ago I was looking at my Newegg orders recently. 7/18/2023 - 64GB (2 x 32GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR5 6000 (PC5 48000) --> $260. Now, $750+. ekropotin 4 months ago Don’t even get me started on this. I recently been shopping on eBay for some DDR4 memory. You may think - who’d need this dated stuff besides me? Yet 16Gb 3200Mhz is at least 60$. Which is effectively the price you paid for DDR5 6000. Crazy, right? tempest_ 4 months ago I have 4 32gb sticks of DDR5 6400 in my machine.The RAM in my machine being worth more than the graphics card (7900XTX) was not on my bingo card I can tell you that. 3eb7988a1663 4 months ago Holy cow. I have 96GB of DDR5 I bought at start of year for a machine which never materialized. Might have to flip it. ekropotin 4 months ago Never in my dreams I could imagine PC parts could be an investment. Someone should start ETF tracking the prices. 2 replies → raw_anon_1111 4 months ago GPUs have a very high failure rate…
