As one of those people I am decided not interesting in being represented by that...

I still have 32 GB of DDR in my drawer from when I upgraded to 64. I am too afraid to sell it because my current ram might break.

128GB DDR4 3080TI rig from 2022 still going strong, I feel I timed this well.

Bought 128GB for €140 a couple years back, amazing deal looking back.

I bought my somewhat high-end PC in late 2025, two months before RAMageddon. Two people advised me against it. They said it wasn't a good time to buy because prices were already a bit high. I'm glad I didn't follow their advice.

I have a glorious 32GB of overclocked DDR3, how lucky am I.

Back in '22 I bought 64gb of ram because I wanted to have all my slots populated. For aesthetic purposes.

Decommissioned VM host my company was getting ready to toss out.

It's all DDR4, but even that shit is expensive now.

Ugh I have 16 GB and I decided to look uo how much it was cost to fill the other 2 slots, it is almost double.

"640K ought to be enough for anybody."

64GB, just because it was cheap enough. Also, back when I used Photoshop, it would take advantage of however much RAM you threw at it.

I hate myself for thinking that "no, I don't need an upgrade just because, I'm fine with what I have" one year ago (and I was also hesitant because of the dying CPUs on AM5). 32 ain't cutting it for me any more, I'm aiming for 96 or 128, but definitely not before this whole thing blows over.

Bought new computer in September 2024, to play cities skylines 2.

So, thanks you CS2

Before the rampocolypse I replaced 2x32GB sticks in my home server with 2x64GB sticks. I recently found I kept those 2x32GB sticks so I have 64GB of RAM sitting in my closet. I'm not sure if I should sell, or build something around that because I already have the most expensive piece now.

Being in IT, post server build eyeing up the left over ecc

I'm in this image!

I got rather lucky with my purchase timing, tho I was just getting more RAM to deal with my 1300 Firefox tabs.

My friend who built 128GB home server in 2024.

I live in fear one of the memories will stop working

I did my rebuild before January 2025 cause I thought DJT was going to fuck up world trade, I underestimated how shitty the AI Bros are.

I have 16GB of VRAM too, baybee.

I just bought 24gb of ram (I work in IT and it's always good to have some extra 8gb sticks).

it got stolen since the USPS delivery person couldn't be bothered to follow directions and leave it inside. and I can't get my money back :(

I have three 32gb ddr5 PCs, trying to sell one for $600 but crypto bros keep offering $350 because "Chatgpt said so"

Price is 900 for mentioning ai

This must be what it feels like to have bought a house in the 1970s

Now i feel poor

64Gb gang shout out!

Edit: Its now an investment!

My 2023 framework 16 is rocking 64gb.

People who built 32+gb ram systems in 2026:

And those of us with servers pray every day a stick won't fail. But at least people can talk to robots and make slop on demand...

2024 I built my NAS with 2 x 16gb sticks, 2 x 32gb sticks for 94?gb of RAM. I got lucky.

Same with drives 14tb ironwolf pros, £200-220 each now £400+ each and I need 5 more of the fuckers.

256 GB DDR4 here, kinda considering selling some of it now...
