This made me look up the current inflated prices and… yes. 64gb RAM is a no go, how about a pony?
Btw, fuck AI bubble economics.
EDIT :
I’m afraid of post bubble ai economics. (They will) Just flood the market (with developers) again (making finding a job even more difficult)
Yes please flood the market with ram, drives, and other second hand parts, that’s self-hosted paradise.
Absolutely none of the things being made for the bubble have any consumer use. The price hike is silicon wafers being bought to manufacture specialty NPU chips with soldered-in RAM, which happens to be the same prime matter used for consumer RAM and NVME disks. When the bubble pops, none of that material will be usable. It would costs hundreds of millions of dollars, again, to return manufacturing machines back to making consumer goods.
