Lol. RAM is going to cost about as much as a mid to high tier GPU soon isn’t it. I suppose an SSD Storage could slowly ramp up to the price of a low tier GPU. SK Hynix sold out their 2026 backlog to AI data centers, Micron is ditching the market, leaving only Samsung for the consumer market outside the Chinese market. Anyone buying an PC or Console might want to consider getting one early. I don’t think anyone can expect prices to become “reasonable” again for the next few years at the minimum.

Soon? 2x32GB of 6400MHz DDR5 (which is what I have, built it last year) is like $900. I just bought a 5070Ti for $750. I didn't need to upgrade my video card, but like you I figured the RAM market is gonna suck for at least the next couple of years so decided to just go for it. I mean, the AI bubble may burst whenever, but AI is here to stay and we're undoubtedly gonna have more datacenter build out with a lot of HBM need even if it's not to the tune of $500 billion for one company.
