Useful. Which saddens my heart.

So I have an NIB sealed Corsair Vengeance 96 GiB (2x48) DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM and it's looking like $1100 USD would be a reasonable price point given comparables and there's zero supply at present. It's pretty crazy when computer components go tulip bulbs better than gold.

A quick glance at sold DIMMs on ebay makes clear this is just nonsense. What's the source for these numbers? This is just some vibe-coded crap, isn't it?

I have 2x32GB DDR4 from Teamgroup that I purchased in 2023 for about $100. One of the sticks recently died. The RMA process has been a nightmare, so I looked on AMZN to check and see how expensive it would be to just re-order and replace them. $600. Absolutely insane tbh.

Nice - Recommend adding LPDDR variants, info on lead times, currency toggle button, and lastly maybe consider adding other memories commonly paired (e.g. eMMC, NVMe, etc.) but perhaps is out of scope. This supply crunch is such a fraud - I was on a call with a analyst group covering the memory market and they described the current situation in hilariously depressing corpo speak: "Pricing dynamics are reflective of coordinated production discipline amongst major suppliers." I had to give them props, that is one of the most creative ways to describe the pricing fixing cartels.

very cool - if RDIMMs could be added, that would be swell

In June 2024, for my home gaming PC, instead of platform swapping to AM5, I decided to coast on a 5700X3D while they were on sale for ~$190 and 32 GB DDR4 3200MHZ for ~$50. Added a 9070XT last year for MSRP but don't remember the exact price. While it was the right idea at the time (for me), I wonder if I should have upgraded while the prices were a little more "normal"... No real point here, just complaining to the room.

I need this for hard drives

Hmm. Maybe I should sell half the ddr4 in my pc. Don’t really need 64gb

Needs to have 48GB SODIMMs

RAM market havoc is handing Chinese manufacturers an open door. They'll generate enough cash to finally catch up with the big guys. This is not going to end well for Samsung, Micron and Hynix.

Crikey I did not realise how bad it was... 8GB of DDR4 is €100?! Is older stuff worth anything? I might be sitting on a goldmine... (Quick look at eBay - not a lot - non-ECC DDR3 2x8GB selling about £10.)
