RAM Prices Hub - Page 4
RAM prices are moving higher again, with both DDR4 and DDR5 seeing upward pressure as supply tightens and suppliers push through firmer pricing. The increases are being felt most on popular kits and higher-capacity modules, where availability can swing week to week.

Keep an eye on short-lived promos, because the baseline trend is currently pointing up.
