Did my upgrade back in April. Got 64GB for $240. Now I checked the price on the same kit… $700. Just crazy.
RIP GabeCube 😢
I stopped putting it off and built a ddr4 based pc as soon as I could. Didn’t plant it out as much as I normally would and now it’s biting me in the ass somewhat but that’s always part of the fun.
am lucky i dont plan to upgrade.
but i wonder if only one per customer can buy ram.
damn 64gb would be crazy i should do that
wait for the ai bubble to burst
I decided to build a new PC about a month ago. 64gb of ram was $250 and I thought that was excessive.
Provided you don't need to upgrade for the next year or two, I think you will eventually have a ton of cheap and quality DDR5 memory to buy. I am looking forward to that, I want to build an endgame Threadripper Pro, and be set for a decade.
Boy am I happy I built my PC with 64 GB of DDR5 earlier this year. 😬
Hi totally not a mad max fallout style raider just spreading this fun new game: on the count of three let's both say where our pcs are
Damn I'm sitting on 16gb of 7000mhz ram, I need to list it
Dang, 16GB of RAM is barely enough these days! I feel you though. Maybe you can list it and get some cash for that expensive upgrade.
I bought the latest of some devices earlier this year, but didn’t have cash to buy a completely new PC. I’ve decided if my older desktop breaks, I’ll just have to get a “cheap” laptop & install Linux. Hopefully things stabilize within the next few years as manufacturers shift production.
Man wish upgrade many ox ddr4 to something more then 16g oh welll now my ram and graphic card match in members size would love 32 or 64 go of ram
