An entire PS5 now costs less than 64GB of DDR5 memory, even after a discount — simple memory kit jumps to $600 due to DRAM shortage, and it's expected to get worse into 2026


Well, if you were planning on building a gaming PC anytime soon, make sure to plan for this. 64GB of RAM used to be around $150 or less. Now it's as much as PS5 Pro!!

AI is completely decimating supply and leaving us plebs with outrageous prices.

Fortunately (I guess  :-X ) gamers don't really need 64GB and can get by with 16GB, but wow, these prices are insane.

Quote from: CreepinDeth on November 24, 2025, 10:33:07 PMThat's a pretty good deal. The M2 Airs tend to go for $649 with almost the same specs and those are 3 years old at this point.

Yeah!  No kidding.  I really would be interested if I didn't already have the pro

If I could afford to dwell in the Apple ecosystem I would be all over it.

@BLUEVOODU I don't remember any of these and there is more than one volume. I have seen as many as eleven volumes. I really don't know where these came from. But this is a very good price. They have been on my radar for some time. Maybe this coming year I can grab this and give some sort-of review. I would want a good story and turn based battles. There is so much I want right now. I have been focused on the Evercade VS and the Neo Geo collection.

Quote from: BLUEVOODU on November 20, 2025, 06:05:24 PMOooo... I have an idea for a 2 part bet.  Not sure on part 1... what do you think? 

However, for Part 2, we play an old school Left 4 Dead 2 versus round LOL.  Winner is on Survivors, loser is on infected.  :happydance:  Honestly, I'm not sure which one would actually be the winner LOL  ;D

Sure! I'm cool with a L4D bet.
