How low will it go? [RAM Prices]
RAM price are coming down. 7-8$ CAD/GB in CANADA
and 5-6 USD/GB in the US.
I've been holding off buying RAM for a year now. Sold the 16GB kit originally in my system for profit, and have been living off a single 4GB stick all this time.
I could probably continue living off 4GB of RAM, but considering I have a x79 motherboard, 3 R9 290s, and a costly cooling loop to keep those R9s cool; a single 4GB stick doesn’t really fit.
We're at 7$/GB now. Do you guys predict anything cheaper? I can't see DDR4 becoming popular until Intel releases a mainstream chipset that uses it, but by then DDR3 prices will probably raise like DDR2 did.
