Isn't a chink brand selling DDR4 at near the old prices? Obviously that doesn't help with DDR5 but at least the overflow into the last gen should stop.

It's bullshit. Chinks' data centers are just as ram hungry as the mutts.

Depending on your motherboard, using all slots may result in lower clock speeds and higher latency. Obviously check what you're getting in something like Hwinfo.

I'd sell.

The issue with data centers is that you need to have something for them to do. There is no road to profitability that doesn't get the companies trying to monetize sued into the fucking dirt. Humanity should be cracking anti-aging tech and grasping biological immortality right now.

>It doesn't pop because people say it won't pop
This shit is like saying nobody expected the Dot com bubble or the housing crisis. People were predicting a collapse around then too, they were drowned out because they weren't important people. You can find interviews the start of 2007 when housing was exploding in value that this would lead to the next great depression, and they were called crazy because they weren't making money. It's just the same thing here: they bury all the dissident voices so they can claim they were unaware and walk off with the money.

there were researchers raising the alarm about AGI and the scaling fallacy back in 2020. This image is from 2022. The house only wins because this house can kick you our or kill you if you don't subsidize it when it loses like in 2008 or Covid.

I predict OpenAI will collapse along with the US economy before the end of the year but that won't solve the RAM crisis as Micro$oft will just buy up all OpenAI's contracts for its own datacenters for their upcoming AI model.

I sure am glad I bought a new PC with 32gb DDR5 RAM in 2022.

Why do you need more than 32GB? You should be happy we even let you have 16GB. You can do everything you need on 8GB. Why I'd be happy to have 4GB if I was in your position.

It's true for DDR4 and DDR5 is only marginally faster, you don't really need it for anything.

Tariffs will last until Trump is out of office, ram prices won't recover until then.

You people don't get it. IBM is going to do away with von Neumann architecture entirely. We're going to see quantum neuromorphic PCs and iPhones and smart TVs in our lifetimes, there's no point in crying over RAM. Just hold out for another 30-50 years. You'll turn it on, and instead of using the internet it'll just predict what's on the internet with 100% accuracy. Like someone makes a youtube video or posts a comment or writes a song and it'll predict it perfectly. And nothing will change except ISPs might go out of business and people will cry about free will.

china is setting up production already and then they will out scale everyone again and you'll only ever see Chinese ram at a fraction of the cost.

Maybe this would have happened anyway because the USA doesn't like China. And when the USA doesn't like you, it tries to interrupt your access to everything. Maybe the 3 RAM manufacturers decided to rob their customers one last time?
>>
>>108230195
This is nothing like covid though. A large amount of people suddenly had the money and time to build a nice computer which isn't necessarily a one time thing but does has pull forward effects. Now everyone and their mum wants 1tb of ram to run their own personal ai and the incentive to do this grows every month as models get better (and bigger). They will basically never run out of demand from now until ai stagnates.
