ddr4 looks to have doubled in price but ddr5 is up 5x
I’m pondering whether to sell my 4x8Gb DDR4 sticks after recently upgrading to 2x32 or hold on to those if I want to build another system or my current sticks die all of a sudden.
I sold all my back-stock of RAM. It helps relieve pressure and all that RAM was destined to sit in a box for years otherwise.
You know the right answer to this question.
