It’s your own fault for upgrading to DDR5. 🤪

    I bought 32GB of DDR4-3200 this summer for USD $50. Now it’s $150. Even used memory is around $100.

      Old as hell thread, but in February I got a kit of 32 GB of Gloway DDR4-3600 CL18 on AliExpress for like, uhh, 57 at the time? Keep in mind that Brazil has a 35% tax rate on imported products that cost less than 100 USD, and even with that I still paid almost the same price as a US client. Today I can’t even find the same kit for sale, and anything equivalent is going out for like 200 USD.

    Hah. Here in Brazil, DDR4 is now exactly just as expensive. If not more.
