Will NVIDIA get a monopoly on providing laptops and desktops with a lot of RAM going forward?

  No. You can get a PowerBook today with 128 GB ram. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1957120-REG/apple_mbp_m5p_175_16_macbook_pro_m5.html https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1957120-REG/apple_mbp...

        $600 for 32GB ram seems bananas
        • riknos314 4mo ago
          Unfortunately in the current market 32GB of ddr5 seems to run about $400 as 2x16gb DIMMS, and even more for 1x32GB DIMM (higher density chips are more expensive). So $600 really isn't much over market price, especially considering strix halo uses 8000MHz ram instead of the typical 6000 found in consumer dimms.

    I'm sorry to announce this to you, but the last PowerBook was released 21 years ago
