WHY THE FUCK IS RAM SO EXPENSIVE NOW????
still using 16GB of DDR3
>>107078011you voted for it
>>107078011you can download more, retard

>>107078011Ram and storage are 250% fucked for the next full calendar year. Manufacturers are dedicated their resources towards fulfilling AI orders.
No, you don't need more than 16.
>>107078011Have you been living under a rock?
>>107078011shut the fuck up zoomie i remember paying like $200 for 16gb

>>107078011AI niggers realised they need RAM too.
>>107078189no, they're glad they sold it off because their xpoint factory is in china while everyone from micron and samsung is outside china
>>107078011What are you smoking? Memory prices for UDIMMs DDR4 and DDR5 are cheap as hell. DDR4 prices are going back-up because mainstream production has ceased as production shifts to DDR5 and soon DDR6 when it comes out. UDIMM are only expensives when a new generation is on the market and there's not much supply of it and DRAM manufacturers are trying to recoup the R&D costs.
>>107078201AI/ML companies are getting RDIMM/LR-DIMM and ECC units not UDIMMs you idiots.
>>107078223And? memory chips compete for the limited number of waffers
>>107078011Holy fuck even shitty DDR4 is like 3x more expensive now.
>>107078262The price increase is a smokescreen for incoming hyperinflation and USD taking a nosedive in the global market.
>>107078332Smokescreen? the US seems to be gambling its entire economy and currency on AI because the last decade was financial speculation without real backing in the US, this circus will be great (terrible) when it touches the first 'ember'.
>>107078362It is same speculation that is going on since 1990s just using FOTD.

>>107078011Pig cycle.Just wait 3 or 4 years.
Everything got expensive. RAM is no exception. Welcome to the Biden Presidency.
I bought ddr5 2x32 gigs of ram last month. It's now 300 euros more expensive lol. Get fucked waitniggers
>>107078011I'll ram you for free
>>107082650>Welcome to the Biden Presidency.?
I use 32gb of DDR4 RAM still. I just don't see any point in upgrading anything in my system. New gaymes suck bad and even with the best hardware are unoptimized vibe coded slop. I can run LLMs with my GPU if I wanted, but again AI is useless slop unless you're getting paid to vibecode. Just appeciate what you have and software that was made from a time when humans were forced to optimize things instead of expecting you to soend thousands on the latest hardware everytime a new gayme releases.
>>107082650How long does your /pol/ ban last for?
>>107080292I'll have to look into it. What increase in performance did you get from stock to tuned?
>>107078784nah i'm good
>>107083027Not worth the effort IMO. I'm big on overclocking most things but DRAM is genuinely an awful process all around. I would unironically have your reset CMOS mobo header connected to your case's reset switch and get used to backing up your bios configs. DDR5 in particular is just a rats nest once you get past the most basic primary timings. Once you get into the weeds with stuff like tertiary timings you start needing to (genuinely) run overnight memtest86 passes because you'll be using a tune just fine for a couple days and then all the sudden, whoopsie looks like its time to uncorrupt windows again with powershell! If you're using linux+ext4 though I've found it doesn't shit itself nearly as fast under unstable memory configs likely due to its journaling features.If you really want to actually fuck with it though I highly recommend also setting all of your ram and memory controller related settings to where there is zero power saving/california-shit going on and plug up your extra EPS cpu slot if you have one.Also, I highly recommend figuring out what your maximum infinity fabric speed is before going past JEDEC default or a little past because it has about the same surprise attack capability of a cosmic ray due to its supposed internal error correction or whatever. You will get a ram overclock really stable and then all the sudden you get corruption again and the only thing I've been able to finally narrow it down to I think is the fucking infinity fabric clock (FCLK).TLDR just shell out for the faster kit if you really want it though you probably don't need it realistically.

oops, should have mentioned thats a 7800x3d
I've used 8GB for the last 20 years. My Thinkpad has 4GB. Still works. Still not upgrading.
I should have waited until 2022 ended and THEN built my upgrade during winter 2024

>>107084069>zogmutts>conservativewew lad
>>107078026and you pay for it for them
Most other things are cheap for me, and I bought plenty of DDR4 early this year. Not my problem.
yeah i went to fill some old junk with ddr3 absolutely gouging prices for old junk asif its the new hotness ddr7
Anon's first 'ram fire' or 'hdd flood'
conversly ive never seen lower idles than when my os is fully in ram feels so good
>>107084182>burgoid thinks its opinion matters
AI has increased the price. Don't worry that this makes no sense for consoomer DDR4/5 ram, it's just like how the war in ukraine made bread and eggs NEEEEED to cost 9$/egg and flour 18$/kg since they are le world's breadbasket and you need to believe the narrative that 100% of wheat was grown in downtown kiev and all microchips are the exact same and already-produced 2gb sticks of DDR4 need to be 80$ each because le AI Data Center needs them more than you
Shoulda boughted some before the trump tariff tantrums
>>107082672I boughted 96gb for 280 euro in april and it's over 600 now, cpus and motherboards have gone down in price dough so if you waited you'd have saved moneyI felt that the ram was quite cheap, wish I'd gotten 128gb now
so-dimms are more cheap, but i wonder who the fuck change ram on laptop
You don't really need more than 8GB.
>>107078215>What are you smoking? Memory prices for UDIMMs DDR4 and DDR5 are cheap as hell.Okay.
>>107086188i have 64 and have never used all of it. 8 is only enough for office stuff but 16 is overkill even for gaymen. even if youre doing video rendering or something it's all offline, it already takes three days, whats the pain if its 3 days and 4 hours instead
>>107078065>>107078852for real?i mean, would that be certain to affect current RAM prices?i would think there's existing supply chains and everything...
>>107078362oh shit nigga>>107078389FOTD?
>>107086188>>107086283unrelated to the OP question

>>107087187what?
>>107078011Why pay? Just download more.
>>107087200that'd be slower than using regular swap space
>>107087198UDIMM DDR5 are cheap unless you are getting extreme factory overclock SKUs.OTOH, RIMMs, LRDIMMs are expensive especially quad-rank, high density units.
>>107087219But that's not true, all RAM went up in price this month, that's just an example. Why even continue lying about this?
>>107087227>Thinks that $150-200 is expensive for UDIMMsSweet summer child, you really have no idea.
>>107087106From my limited understanding>AI corps have put in huge orders (le AI boom)>which manufacturers will fulfill because huge margins>no more wafer capacity for consumer products>insane price hikes due to lack of supply
>>107087479ah i see...ty>>107087219good to know
I procrastinated on scoring 64GB DDR5 RAM, now I'm screwed. Fuck this gay stupid Earth!Not even fat tiddies can make me feel better. Dammit.
>burgoids vote in an isolationist clown government that does nothing but funnel money to billionares and repeatedly attacks every trade partner and repeatedly disrupts the supply chain>"why thing expensive"why thing expensive indeed.
>>107082572I bought picrel in July of 2024, it now costs $120, so yes it is THAT bad.>>107082808Same but I was just compiling Firefox and 32GB barely covered it so I'm looking at going up to 64.
>>107087631>Not even fat tiddies can make me feel better. Dammit.aaaah...
>>107078026Nobody voted to outsource ram production.
I bought 64gb of ddr5 ram when the 12900k came out and both are still going strong.

>>107088441>>107088481wtf nigga>>107088472o.o

one point twenty one niggabytes>>107088739nice
>>107088441We all did, by buying cheaper Chinese manufactured stuff over the same thing but US and more expensive when it was a choice. That made all the big companies chose their US manufacturing, since it couldn't be price competitive.
>>107088441You vote for that every time you vote for capitalism.
>>107088991nigga wtfh
>>107088739I have to explain this to Bitcoin and precious metal enjoyers all the time: your thing is not worth more. The dollar is worth less.$180 in July was worth more than $420 is worth today.
>>107089259>$180 in July was worth more than $420 is worth today.HWAT THE FUCK
>>107089259>coming-soon.jpgo.oi just wanted to live a "normal" life and listen to creepypastas with a millenial womanthis is not what i agreed to
>>10708628316 overkill only for PEPE needsTry to run couple VMs just for education purposes and see what left.Upgraded from 16 to Exceleram 64 (32x2) ddr4 month ago for 100$ total.Seems legit
Either the AI bubble burst or chink flood the NAND market. Otherwise, I can't see any possibility for it to go down at this point
A related issue is that searching for RAM is made to be a fucking nightmare because of sellers on eBay, etc. being unable to tag there shit correctly.Here's a challenge, to illustrate; imagine you own a server motherboard that can take up to 256GB of DDR4, but the CPU only supports RDIMMs not LRDIMMs (ie. it requires you to source 4x 64GB sticks, and those DIMMs must be 2Rx4).Now, try and find some that cost less than 800 USD.
>>107078011it just goes up...

>>107089579I use about 24gb to run my os in ram and the os itself uses about 8gb so I have about 64gb left for vms and other stuff I run
>>107089330you will NEVER just "live a comfy life"even billionaires have to keep "working" or else their money depreciates. this is a ratrace to the bottom.we need1) USD backed by physical goldand, just as importend2) make it illegal for "money to make money"and what I mean by 2) is, no one should ever be able to multiply his wealth just by moving around his capital into assets that don't exist. EVERYONE needs to be held accountable for their actions. only a) providing a service or b) providing a product should be able to generate money.
>>107089643abolish the federal reserveRIGHT NOW
>>107089643They don't want you to own anything, they want to own everything while riding on your back and forcing you to pay rent You'll probably have to pay rent to use your os in a decade, no amount of laws will change this, you have to forcibly remove the goblin from your back
>>107089643and you can achieve 2) by just taxing all digital stock market exchanges by 90%this will incentify the acquisition of stocks via physical goldthis concept is what china has been hoping for, since 2016, which is why they went all in and bought TONS of physical gold.
>>107089678no they don't really want that.its just the fact that all US bilionaires went all-in on digital stocks, rather than pure gold, like china.so now they have to stick with their shitty decision, because fort knox is empty, and most gold is owned by israel and china, so even if they wanted to switch to physical gold now, they cannot.the stock market right now isn't generating anything for these bilionaires. they're just moving their assets around. the only reason numbers go up, is because of inflation.basically, they'll shuffle around their digital assets until this ratrace collapses, at which point they're gonna go on a loong holiday inside their bunkers.
You're a tard, these parasites will move to china when the US has been bled dry and you'll be a debt slave
Perhaps now would be a good time to sell those 8GB and 16GB DDR3 sticks I still have laying around. Is there still a market for those?
>>107089730learn to read, niggerthese bilionaires are stuck on the titanic.unlike chinese bilionaires, all their wealth is inside digital stock. if they pull out now, the ship will sink, and the ship is gonna sink no matter what. why else do you think they built bunkers? unless they got jew money, and by that I mean they're buddy buddy with Isaac Herzog, they'll have to hide in the underground
>>107089758You're a tard, the average chinese is a serf, the parasites just took everyone's gold and moved it to China their next host country lolThe chinese are literally mongoloids
its kinda funny it takes 2 companies coordinate to make prices suddenly go up
>>107078011wtf do you mean, its been low for 3 years
>>107090127
I bought this 32gb ddr4 set a while ago for 60 bucks

I'm kind of fond of this thread. Don't let it die.

>>107094614The goal is basically feudalism at this stage. Revolution is the only solution. But at this stage it might just be a nothing peasants revolt.

>>107078011because X thing is happening and thus they have to jack prices up they have been doing this since the Thailand floods like a decade ago
also i think it's pretty much a joke for any sort of organic revolution to exist when glowies & their methods are as sophisticated as they are at this pointbut i don't have anything else to offer, i guess
>>107094834Open markets don't "cause" inflation, they allow for a more accurate price discovery for the dollar and expose all of the currency dilution that the Fed has been
>>107094846When you have an overseas actor with a monopoly, they can jack up the price as much as they want. If you have an overseas financial actor, they can make arbitrage profit off of hyperinflation in a foreign state. And when your military doctrine is basically entwined with economics, you get the current situation as a part of a national strategy.Companies and the people making the decisions in them to outsource things are traitors to the state and should be gassed.
>>107078011RAM is basically food for AI. Growing a big healthy AGI takes a lot of RAM.

>>107094858No it isn't. They want this situation to get away with crimes and prevent your ability to resist, say, forced inoculations.A guinea pig serfdom.That's also why they drive up property prices in particular.
>>107094877hmmmm, ty>Companies and the people making the decisions in them to outsource things are traitors to the state and should be gassed.i have a similar impression from what i know, but idk
>>107094900maybe you're right, but all intelligence agencies need to die before any sort of actual revolution can take place, imoif they aren't it'll just be used against regular people again
>>107094882Bullshit, it's fucking Taiwan and China starving out the west in order to destroy it.They should be able to anticipate these things, especially with AI. There's no excuse for this shit other than "they did it deliberately".AI is a scapegoat for national strategy from China. China is literally flexing ships in Australian waters nowadays so that's how you know it's in preparation for full blown war.
i still don't know if some sort of revolution would solve anything, but i KNOW it wouldn't while there's glowies about

It's very simple. US needs China but China doesn't need US. If war ever broke between US and China, Europe would take China's side.

I guess I lucked out.
I further recollection, it may have been a good idea to buy a new board/cpu/ram back in May. Only 32GB since I went for faster ram instead of more ram, as it helps with the iGPU a lot.

there isn't a single usecase where you need more than 16gbNo, you are not running a home server or enterprise applications, stop larping
>>107097292its not related to tariffsthe supply was simply bought out by AI and since the ram manufacturers are fully booked they started increasing prices and the companies assembling desktop pc ram sticks pass the costs to end user
>>107097839So he probably has to wait even longer considering the AI bubble probably won't pop until long after Trump era then kek
>>107097849theres gonna be lag where they ramp up productionthe AI demand wont be stable forever after the building of new mega datacenters stops and then when demand abruptly goes down the cartel starts winding down production to avoid oversupply
>>107095296>pwease mr trump can we start investing in our own chip manufacturing>"best i can do is a party and white house demolition"
>>107097839It is?Trump bought Nvidia; the then-only easy option for AI.By doing so they scared China since they don't want to rely on the spastic trumpster fire fucking them over.
i have 16gb ddr4i've ben planning to upgrade to 32gb for a whileshould i get 18gb ddr4 and bite the price or go for another 16gb ddr4
>>107098322*16gb ddr5
>>107078011> Jew run AI company is gobbling up components left right center, leaving none for the GoyimYou will witness computers go backwards in pricing in the next five years. Ironic
This might be the first time in my life I regret waiting to upgrade. That's almost always the safest bet, but now things are getting more expensive over time, not less. Even the used market of old products are going above their initial 100%. Crazy.
>>1070991765 years ago it was the sameif you saw a good priced part you should buy it asap because theres zero guarantee prices wont go up later
>blame Trump>ram prices are high in Europe alsoAre people this low IQ?
>>107078011Get your ram on ebay, used. Not even joking. Ram is very reliable, rarely anything wrong with it.
words cannot describe how delightful it is watching americans bend themselves into a pretzel to try and paint this as someone else's fault.literal popcorn-ass material right here. decades of having to deal with you obnoxious assholes makes for the perfect seasoning.
>>107099624holy fucking obsessed batman
>>107078011>bought 96gb of ram for 369$A>now it sells for 629$AGood timing I suppose.
>>107099624Words cannot describe how delightful the AI bubble is. You're a seething thirdie while Americans are making money in stocks.
>>107099660>this level of copedamn bro.i'd say i feel sorry for you but as a canadian im just really fucking done with you retards.
>>107078852Why are you so interested and in a rush to end the thread? Missing cp threads, huh?
>>107081589How is it appreciation of you aren't planning to sell your PC?
>>107082603Beyond based
>>107078011thats what you get for supporting AI overlords
>>107078011bought 1x 32gb ddr4 ram for my laptop at the start of the year for 60€ now its 170€. Crazy shit.
>>107078080Too old.
>>107078011fucking AIthe only thing that protects the GPUs from being way overpriced is they put only below 16GB vram there
>>107078011Picked this out 2 months ago (Dollarydoo)It's now unavailable to Aus and 2.5x the price anywhere I can see it.
>>107078011It's the fault of AI.Glad a purchased my Ram and HDD for my NAS before shit hit the fan,
>bought 2x16GB of DDR5 6000 a month ago for 75 dollars>same kit is now 180 dollarsgrim
>>107084182>real conservative hasn't been tried>>107095629Micron's Idaho facility is R&D only. Generates zero revenue. They have a production plant in Virginia though.
>>107094925>Bullshit, it's fucking Taiwan and China starving out the west in order to destroy it.>TaiwanTaiwan fucking hates China, and relies on it's business relations with the rest of the world to keep them safe from the Chinks.Also, most NAND for Ram is manufactured in Japan (Kioxia) and Korea (Samsung).
>>107078011>selling sticks of ram for $100these servers aint gonna RAM themselves
>>107078204>he thinks dykeron doesn't have china factories
>>107089450>the AI bubble burstthere is no bubble
>my PC is dying>to buy a good one will cost between 3k and 4kfuck me i wish for AI slop to die already because i am tired
>>107095327US chip makers have now invested more than a trillion into the chip industry, after chips acts was axed. Apple is finally making their chips in the US. Samsung/TSMC/others are investing hundreds of billions into chip factories. All with customers lined up, factories being built as we speak, and not just random announcements.
>DDR4 still cheap as fuckI'm never going to get a price close to retail for my shitty 16GB 3200 CL18 kit will I?
>>107103413>he still thinks prices will fall>just wait until the ETH mining boom is over>just wait until corona stops fucking with supply chains>just wait until the AI bubble burstsPrices are the lowest they are ever going to be from here on out. We told you this back when you were still coping about ETH miners eventually fucking off too.
>>107078172>Gaming fags blaming anyone but themselves for the consumption of productsAt least AI is giving me clussy webms, what the fuck are you doing for me?
>>107096889>laptop DRAMYou just bought the type of memory aislop isn't seeking.
>>107078011What about DDR3? That's what my PC uses.
>>107103753>what about ewasteDon't worry, the price of that is going up too, and not just because it's obsolete and no longer being manufactured.
>>107087631 Why would you need 64g for image generation? Even flux does not eat up that much
>>107103492 It isnt doe, ddr4 is 150% more expensive compared to several months ago
>>107095007This doesnt work anymore, the average American consumer does not matter anymore (economically speaking), the only people that matter are all the fuckers with the cash and capital to keep this bubble inflated in the seperate fake economy that somehow counts over the real one.
actually it cheaps thanks for understand
>>107078784>96gb>dual channelrookie
>>107104129Where? I can get the specified RAM for 30-40€ on ebay where I live. Paid over 100€ 6-7 years ago.
>>107103599can you share said clussy webms
