will ram prices ever go down i wanna save up for a actual good pc once i become a wage cuck
The prices and "scarcity" will remain until at least 2027 according to fucking Micron.
2030 is more likely though.
I bet even on 2030 prices will not be pre ram apocalypse level
Of course they won't. They will at least justify the new shitty prices with inflation.
I just wanna cope mango. My laptop is breaking down and I wanna upgrade it a bit. Wasting money on a laptop is already a no-no.
Fuck these companies.
Use an old PC
Im going for the am5 upgrade in near future. new motherboard that supports it, ddr5 and a good amd cpu
nah it's pretty fucked
just get a console
Imo pretty unlikely they go down any time soon. On top of general inflation; Ai will continue to put growing pressure on demand, production won't be able outpace that demand and big corp capitalmaxxers will get used to telling shareholders and their gold-digging whores how much money they're making.

What RAM do you need. I have a spare stick which I got from before the rise if your motherboard is comptatible.
A ps5 would cost me around 87 bands local. That's around $680 US. I still have games to buy and an internet bill to foot because everything's online. Gaming is a slog
You can build an okay PC if you are able to buy components second hand, for example on Ebay if you have that where you are. And then just pirate the games you want to play instead of buying them.
No white man's marketplace for East Africancels
Over for Africacels. I have no idea how you'd get PC gear over there but if you do manage to do it, never buy a game again. Just pirate that shit.
I've not paid for a game in over ten years other than a couple online only games.
And I am not even trying to joke about this.
If you can get good deal on DDR4 and 5 then buy buy buy.
I am also stocking up on RAM, GPUs and SSDs.
I don't buy anything fancy. I just make sure that I always have spare parts just in case something breaks.
Smart moves. I'm just too inexperienced in this whole technology thingy. I also don't have enough savings.
Good deals are great, yes, but I also, cannot buy them in the rural area because there are no computer stores here.
My parents do have the money, but they won't allow me for such thing. Although I had my first laptop thanks to my dad, but this thing is breaking down post-warranty.
Now i'm on my own when it comes to necessities/personal gadgets. I earn some allowance from my university, but it's not enough for daily life.
The CMOS battery is cooked, the WLAN card disables automatically on startup. Windows 11 just eats 7GB of my 16GB RAM, and there are other essential softwares I have to keep, which drains the memory, also. I might say goodbye to this piece of junk soon.
Buy second hand. You can get new, sealed component second hand and usually only pay half of what they cost new.
Even for RAM, GPUs and SSDs some people make reasonable prices and don't exaggerate like retailers.
Now is not the right time because I'm still low on money. But thanks. I'll see what I can do
same
i read it thinking you were talking about the animal lol
I hate capitalism.
How the fuck are you using your laptop if the CMOS battery is dead?????
Legit build a PC with Xeon CPU, DDR3 and HD7970 or something, find that shit on eBay for cheap and build a PC lasting 10 yrs on my life.Now is not the right time because I'm still low on money. But thanks. I'll see what I can do
Don't follow my advice I'm retarded
You can but date and time will always reset every time you power on your laptop from a shutdown state atleast in my case
It's still functional. It's just the clock settings aren't up-to-date and stay static until you change it manually, it's a pain in the ass. And even my BIOS configs cannot be kept anymore.
Gaming laptop is probably the worst thing for your pocket, in my opinion.
Same my 12 year old laptop which is only good for pdf viewing suffers from the same fate. It is a real pain in the ass to always manually change date and time.
Yeqh, all you have to do is set the time and date again in BIOS, after each new startup.
Been doing this on an old system for several years. I was too lazy to replace the battery. jfl
Can’t even replace the ram on my laptop it’s soldored in
the prices are ridiculous but fuck it. gaming and pc are the most important things in my shit life anyway
how long do u think i should wait till upgrading to am5? i am still on ddr4 btw
just do it as soon as possible if you got the money, the ddr5 demand will just get higher and higher for us gamers
