Something worth mentioning with RAM is that it’s still cheaper than a GPU. Prices are going to be double, perhaps triple what they were last year, but that’s £200 at the upper end. An upper end GPU is still over £1000.
Proportionally it’s awful, but I don’t have money proportionally. I’ll have £200 before I have £1000.
That said, I’m running the gtx 900 series and 16GB DDR3 RAM happily because I don’t really play new games, so it’s not my fight.
I’m not sure what your point is here exactly, but for one, you’re underestimating the new prices for upper end DDR5 RAM severely; and secondly guess what GPUs come with a bunch of?
Depends what you mean by “upper end”, but already 64GB is running for over $600. And it’s almost certainly going to get worse. I wouldn’t be stunned if 32GB tops out at close to $1000 next year.
