alt Hacker NewsWill be interesting to see how long this RAM insanity will last. If it doesn't calm down before Zen 6 releases, people like me on older platforms might just have to skip Zen 6 entirely and wait for the AM6 platform.

Higher DRAM prices might mean that there is less demand from new system builders mean depressed prices so it might be more tempting to upgrade your existing AM5 CPU to Zen 6

Hopefully it settles down soon. DDR4 prices are climbing now as well since more people are sticking with it.
I'd love to build a new desktop soon but I couldn't justify the cost and am instead building out a used desktop that's still on ddr4 / lga1151.

I hope they'll release a new AM4 CPU
Something like 5900x on 2nm or 4nm
Reportedly, Zen 7 will also be on AM5.
