What the fuck is wrong with ram prices?
I wanted ddr3 but 8gb alone is insanely expensive when a few months ago it was less than half the price

 

[James Bridger Pearson]

Changes in the industry and a shortage of ram drove up prices

I bought 4gb ddr3 new for 35$ on ebay

The reason ddr3 prices go up:
Still being used by alot of people but they don't produce it anymore so there is a finite supply, this causes prices to go up

I got 2x8 16gb corsair vengeance led ddr4 3000mhz 117.99 last February, year later 204.99 wow

I've been wanting more RAM, but the prices have kept me from considering it.
