However fast it is, AMD says Zen 6 is coming later this year.

        I just checked and I paid $165 for 64 GB of DDR5 in December of 2024. I doubt I’ll ever see those prices again.

          I paid $105 CAD ($77 USD) for 32GB of DDR4 (2×16GB) in Feb 2023. The same RAM is now $295 CAD, and the cheapest available 2×16GB DDR4 kit is $265 CAD. It’s not even DDR5 and it’s 2½× the price over 3 years later.

          Insanity.

          I should really get around to selling my 4TB M.2 SSD I have for my Windows dual boot that I haven’t booted in over a year…

    Cores is bigger news for me. Last gen dies had 6 to 16 cores and now they go 12 to 24.

    If the new platforms switch to DDR6, can I get some DDR5 at just 2x of the original price, not 4x?

      That one made CPUs run at a lower clock speed so that older games would run.
