This used to be called ‘price fixing’. Now it’s just normal business. I hope China starts to mass produce more ram and floods the market.

I hope my 1070ti can chug along for another five years...

So when the bubble pops they'll just stop selling while the other sellers continue?

Yeah I don't think so, unless all sellers "lock in" their prices for 5 years it isn't happening and they're just saying this to get more companies to buy at high prices. If all of them do "lock in" their prices then this will probably be the second time the memory cartel is fined.
