    Thought I could wait to build a new PC, but at this point, it’ll be another 5-10 years before things start getting better. After the price of the steam machine, I ordered parts to build my own. Such a bad time to build, but it’s just gonna get worse the longer I wait.

      If they get better. By the time the AI sector collapses under the weight of its own bullshit, things will have already gotten significantly worse. You’ll be less worried about RAM prices and more worried about bread prices.

        Don’t worry you might get $25 in a class action for bread price fixing. I think there should be a class action against the manufactures of Ram and hard drives. Most companies scale up when they have more demand, these fucks ain’t, theyre pulling a classic OPEC

      I could crash the prices by tomorrow if I wanted to. All I’d have to do is buy some ram today.
