I went to a pc building shop and the price of 64 RAM DDR5 was over $1000. I could have built an entire PC with that price a year ago.

    Nvidia is already diverting “midrange” gaming GPU production to AI.

    CPUs and motherboards might become cheaper, but I doubt it. Companies are much more willing to sit on inventory these days.

      Yeah :(

      Still though, Intel has their own fabs not really restricted by any of this. And not as easy to spin down as PCB making. So the CPU is likely to be the cheapest of anything.
