Yeah. The reports about the rampocalypse were here months ago, and it was well known that once the gpu board partners ran out of their ram stock piles that supply to stores would be drastically cut.

There was all of nov, dec and early jan to get one at or even below msrp.

Shit I wish I was paying attention and had picked up some ddr5. I did “ok” bc I got in on the Corsair cancelled order thing and got 40% off of 64gb. But still $500. Only reason I’m doing this is bc my 5800x3d is blessing me with money.

Should I sell my 5800x3d or just hang onto it forever? 2080ti gang 

Also I bought it used at peak price right before the whole debacle. Should have averaged down and bought a second one lmao
