Re: ram prices skyrocketing.

ram already finished sky rocketing...
it appears to be falling back down again


but ya there deffintly was some crazy increases... a few ram kits nearly doubled in price




For those wondering it's because of the Core 2 duo building frenzy, vista preperation, and 2gb slowly becoming the new standard

damn, i geuss im holding onto this ram then, i sold my core 2 and mobo hoping id be able to build it again in a few months with a nice price differnce, and now it looks like i made a big mistake.

I always thought the older a pc part the less its costs, geuss i was wrong.
