“I’ve been saving for months to get the Corsair Dominator 64GB CL30 kit,” one beleagured PC builder wrote on Reddit. “It was about $280 when I looked,” said u/RaidriarT, “Fast forward today on PCPartPicker, they want $547 for the same kit? A nearly 100% increase in a couple months?”

    not OP, but I guess that’s futureproofing, 128GB RAM should be more than enough for a long time

      If they have their computers blow up they may not reach that far future point.

      It really depends on your workflows/use, whether you make use of a lot of RAM, and possibly even 128 GB today. That kind of size is certainly niche.
