The RAM also get much larger and cheaper, and it is now possible to have several terabyte (TB) of RAM memory (not storage), in a single PC or workstation. This i7 14700K can support 192 GB RAM but other lower end Xeon CPU W for workstation for example w3-2423 costing around USD350 can support 2 TB RAM albeit only 6-core [1]. But then with not so much more extra budgets you can scale the machine to your heart's content [2].
