I tried pricing out my workstation PC which has 64gb of RAM and a few 4TBs I bought on sale before this horseshit and I almost hurled. That isn't even including the case.

I had some RAM trouble earlier this year and looked into what replacing it would cost me and the same sticks of 32GB(x2) DDR5 RAM I got in 2025 for ~$200 was 4x the cost (~$800). I just checked rn and it's $900!! All more reason to hate AI driven data center expansion and illegal wars.
