If you’ve tried building a PC since August 2025, you know the pain. We aren't just seeing inflation, we are seeing a total market shift.
A standard 32GB DDR5 kit has jumped from $95 to $184 in just a few months. That’s a 94% increase. Even older DDR4 RAM prices are doubling.
It’s the AI Boom. Major players like Samsung and SK Hynix are gutting consumer production lines to chase high-profit AI hardware for data centers.
Don’t wait for a price drop. Analysts say this shortage will last well into 2027. The era of cheap memory is officially over.
Did you manage to upgrade your PC before the spike? Let us know in the comments!
