When this price madness going to cool down and RAM and SSD prices get back down?

I built a new computer last winter (when my 5 or 6 year-old rig died) and was absolutely appalled at the prices. Especially when Newegg sold me 2 motherboards in a row that were defective.

The other day I thought it would be nice to get a 2TB NAND but had to nix that idea. I wish that I could hope that the prices would come down in the foreseeable future, but I wonder ....

Yep, I noticed that too - about 2 years ago I built new PC for my daughter and had constant issues with GPU. Sent it back, they tested it and sent back without replacement saying nothing's wrong. I tested it in 3 different PCs and proved it being faulty, but no. HDD issues as well. Dont know why but in last 5 years hardware quality went down to drain.

I hope prices will go down next year, what its now is a total madness.

Guys,  it's like you h8 GPUs.

Look, don't h8 GPUs,  it's the bad hughmahnns using AI improperly that is the problem.

Hughmahnns are fleshy and easily rectified,  if it gets bad,  well,  the solution is obvious.
