I’m waiting for the ai bubble to burst so I can double my pcs ram to 128gb for 50% off of the normal price.

Unlikely. They aren't buying the RAM sticks, they are burying the capacity and making other kinds of RAM.

A few are hoarding consumer RAM, but it's neglectable compared with the amount that's not compared to last year

You heard them HBM for all!!!

I had a Radeon VII with HBM fuck that RAM was stupid fast for the time.

Yeah, all this has me missing my Vega 64

I'm more interested in the big enterprise grade NVMe drives. Those can be made to work on normal hardware unlike the HBM RAM.

Too bad, that the normal price for that is now a 4-digit sum and will the cost you still $500+...
