People act like RAM is thousands of dollars now. I checked prices recently and while it’s pretty high, it’s not that bad for a component you just buy once and use for a long time. I’m still more concerned about the prices and availability of decent GPUs.
- sudoshred 4mo agoSame people complaining "no one wants to work these days".
- vitally3643 4mo agoRAM prices are so bad that my business couldn't launch our product this year. RAM increases completely obliterated our profit margin, and would have required raising prices 30%. For a small business, that just doesn't work. A lot of small businesses are getting absolutely wrecked by this.
- deadbabe 4mo agoJust raise the prices, it works sooner or later. We are not getting the old prices back.
- KetoManx64 4mo ago> Just raise prices Let me guess, you've never run a small business before who's existance is based around being small, nimble and inexpensive in order to compete with large corporations? Yours is the same answer that were given to hundreds of thousands of small businesses during COVID who ended up going out of business. Now you get to shop/eat at at soulless $BIGCORP which has the same slop as every other soulless $BIGCORP.
- deadbabe 4mo agoNo, but I have purchased from many small businesses who are all raising prices and I basically have no choice but to buy from them anyway.
- DoctorOetker 3mo agowhat small business oriented product or service expense would be dominated by RAM?
