I doubt it will matter much. Like GPUs, prices during the crunch doubled. After the crunch prices went down ~20%. Everyone cheered that the shortage was over. No one seemed to notice that everyone was still paying 1.8X more.
So ram is up like 4x. After the shortage prices will drop 25%. People will be paying 3x for ram and think everything is great.

The GPU peices have risen before crypto.
Not as much but it was only a matter of time.

More like 3 years until the market demand is satisfied and the prices can normalize.
Remember, foundries mentioned they were booked well beyond 2026.

They’ll never buildout all the proposed infra. TSMC isn’t building new fabs to meet the smoke and mirrors demand that’s proposed by Altman. There’s not enough power in the grid and Trump is trying his damndest to suppress solar.
