So after revealing that I intend on upgrading my RAM I looked at adding an additional 2x16 gig Corsair vengeance LED dimms.

I paid £280 for the first lot. Now finding them at least £100 more just a month or so later?
Why?

 

[Miraz Ahmed]

Ram's price are increasing all over the world

 

[Anthony Phillips]

yeah the price is getting a little crazy i only wanted 16 GBs of ram in my new build (2x8gb) and its going to cost $209

 

[Marc Wolfe]

Because the companies are greedy.

 

[Richard Gooden]

I paid 349.99 for 32 Gig a month ago.

 

[Juan Gomez]

Because the world is getting short on PC ram. And instead making ram for phones.

 

[Jonathan Wahlgren]

There's a new Europe commission law for devices environmental harm, adding more taxes in many countries for customers, and taxes for the production itself.

 

[Kieran Paget]

You paid £280 for 16 go ram?

You nuts?

 

[Hassam Abro]

"Adding an additional 2x16"> "i paid 280£ for first lot" i am guessing u have 32gb already right now?? Do u even need 64gb?

 

[Hassam Abro]

I would say 16GB already is more than enough but u have double to that, double it further and u dont need RAM anymore u need a good psychiatrist

 

[Karl Mersh]

Yep. Got a quote for some ram back in august and when I bought it 2 weeks ago it was about 40 percent more expensive

For those that say you don’t need more than 16 gig RAM. You are probably too young to remember or weren’t even alive what Bill Gates famously said about RAM in early PC’s
