💻 Thinking of Upgrading Your PC? Read This First! ⚠️
RAM prices are going crazy right now — seriously. 😬
🔥 What’s happening:
AI companies are buying up memory for servers 🤖
Manufacturers are focusing on high-end chips 💾
Regular DDR5 RAM is now 2–3× more expensive than a few months ago
💸 What it means for you:
PC builds cost a lot more (midrange rigs jumped $300–500)
DDR4 is still cheaper — hang onto your old setup if you can
Performance gains from new RAM don’t justify the insane prices right now
💡 Tips:
Only upgrade if you really need to
Reuse your old RAM if possible
Watch for sales — prices might not drop until 2026 😩
