Micron exited the consumer DRAM market in December 2025, leaving Samsung and SK Hynix as the only two major suppliers. It is now rumored that SK Hynix may follow Micron's lead, stopping the production of consumer DRAM and NAND chips.
The problem is, while faster on paper, its not really any faster than my 3090, especially in spots where I need its performance most. It’d be a downgrade.
I could get a second 3090, I guess, and have some redundancy in case one fails. But I’m on an ITX board with 1 slot.
I’d be WAY more interested in a roughly equivalent 9000 series or Battlemage card, but alas, there is none.
The RX 7900xtx is 24gb and sells right now for around $900.
This is an option.
