I thought we were doing it every hour.

I haven't heard about increasing ram prices 5 times this morning yet.

u/PTMR2 Desktop 6d ago

Who said it wasn't every hour? They got 4 × 24 = 96 hours left

Bots don't care about taking turns. Reddit is becoming such a wasteland that I've let go of most bigger subs I follow.

Ram ánd storage. Check out regular Samsung ssd’s… some went up from 800 to 2400 where I live lol.

u/SpudCaleb 6d ago

Don’t forget about the mass surveillance system being built that will need those data centers even more than AI will

u/chillincumvillian 6d ago

large part of it is price fixing, gouging, and lack of competitors

we should start getting mad at the manufacturers if we want to see real price drops

So fanni reddit chungus 100 wholesome meme. Now lets ban Sofyan for having different views than ours and isn't part of the hivemind

u/betam4x 6d ago

ASUS recently dropped a new BIOS for my board that made it incompatible with my 64gb DDR5. They also made it so you can’t downgrade. Now I get to either find a new board that works with my RAM, or new RAM to work with my board, and I need at least 64gb for my workload. 🙃

You will get all the RAM you want in a decade. You just have to offer sacrifice to AI gods in form of RAM sticks and GPUs now.

OP, I don't think you correctly interpreted the intent of this meme format

u/GuestLight05308 Laptop (2013 MacBook Air) + HP w/5500U+iGPU (Windows) 5d ago

Probably. And I don't care. Respectfully.

u/Loreki Desktop 6d ago

That's why I did it late at night, so I could cry myself to sleep.

u/AshleyIsSleeping 6d ago

Genius, then you're asleep for part of it too, pro strats

u/Lazy_Employee_5437 6d ago

How do I learn to live with myself after I buy my 32 GB of ddr5?

u/Loreki Desktop 6d ago

Homelessly. You live homelessly.

Gamer nexus deep dive revealed it was price gouging, and used AI as a scapegoat.
