if you're waiting to buy a computer, do it soon. prices are going to skyrocket (again) in 2027 and 2028. especially ram. i've linked to some of my sources in the post.

i’m seeing some estimates stating ram prices are going to jump 400% by the end of june 2027. major price increases are inbound.

here is some of the information i’m seeing:

1. Memory shortage deepens, extending boom for Korean chipmakers
2. Samsung expects memory shortage to worsen through 2027 and last until 2028
3. SK Hynix CEO sees worst memory shortage in 2027, demand to outstrip supply beyond 2030
4. SSD and memory price to remain high at least until 2029?
5. Micron: Memory Crunch Outpaces 20% Supply Growth

prices may never come down again.
