Ai isn't worth this
post
This is free market capitalism creating competition and demand right? This is supposed to make things better for the consumer right? Because in my non economist mind, this seems like a shit deal for everyone except one small group of people.

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