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?
It's the chips that go into them not the modules themselves. OpenAI alone ordered like 40 percent of the global supply this year iirc for AI data center fab stuff.
