Would've perhaps gotten one or two for some cheap builds but now DDR4 prices around 100+ for 32GBs, forget it..

What's going on with DDR4 pricing? I got a 64GB kit a few months ago for about $100.

Isn't that wild!? Didn't see ram going up like that, especially for an older standard. You can borderline get ddr5 for the same price.

This is tempting for me because I have a couple 3300x chips laying around waiting for homes.

AI, it's always AI.

Demand is high and the fabs basically moved bulk of their production to provide for those demands because they can sell those chips for much higher margins than what they were selling to consumers. DDR5 prices have basically shot up overnight, like literally overnight due to a very heavy reduction in current and future supply. What's in market basically went by 200-250% from couple months ago.

DDR4, although has been seeing it's supply dwindle over time as it gets phased out, some of the incrase is from that and the rest is just reaction to overall pricing.
AI sucks.

I'm currently trying to fence a 5700g for $100 which is probably the best Apu on am4.

Only if you lived long enough. This used to apply to storage all the time. something something factory flooded, something something factory on fire. Every other year. It was until Chinese factory able to crank out ssd and then all of suddent those nature disaster went away for some reason. And due to recent import ban of Chinese made memories and ssds, this shortage somehow came back. Basically you are seeing the result of trade war, they just find other excuses for you to pay premium.

Two of the largest memory manufacturers recently signed massive contracts to provide memory for AI, along the lines of 900,000 wafers if I remember what I read yesterday correctly. Tariffs might play a small part of it, but it's supply/demand rearing its ugly head. Consumers are on the losing end.

DDR4 is going up mainly due to production cuts. DDR5 is going up because datacenters are hoovering up the supply and also because memory manufacturers cut production awhile back due to oversupply. NAND supply is getting hoovered up by datacenters as well. Expect prices to continue climbing and maybe level off. Best case scenario for us is the AI boom busts and all this hardware gets dumped on the secondary market for dirt cheap. That said, the DDR5 supply would likely only be registered ECC stuff, so no good for gaming rigs, and the NAND would likely be U.2 drives, so not easy to install in a gaming rig either (although for the right price I"ll buy some adapters and make it work).
