Any tech fags have any idea when the RAM prices will go back down?
🧐 Research Wanted 🤔
I mean holy shit
I was going to upgrade my RAM then found out the prices have 5x'd in less than a year because all these fucking AI Data Centers people seem so happy about are buying up all the RAM
I also have heard that locals in the areas where they're building them are having their water and electric bills go through the roof because the data center is hogging it all.
Ready for rolling blackouts to keep the stupid Chat GPT running?
😫
Maybe look at buying a used laptop / full PC just to get the RAM. Quick, before everyone tries it.
I could be wrong. I've been through a few RAM price cycles. If i knew the future for sure i'd tell you exactly when to buy, but i don't.
I forsee it affecting electronics prices though.. at least for another 6 months.
If this AI bubble bursts it could be sooner.
I feel like Trump admin should have factored this in and brought some RAM production back home while they're busy carpet-bombing us with AI datacenters. We should be making RAM, GPU's etc here anyway. We could make a ton of it it doesnt take that many people to run a line iirc
