32GB of DDR5 now costs $375 – AI shortage continues to squeeze PC building (tomshardware.com) AI
Tom’s Hardware reports that DDR5 RAM pricing has been pushed up by ongoing AI-related supply constraints, with 32GB DDR5 kits now costing at least about $375 (around $374.97), and 16GB kits rising to roughly $240+ in many cases. The article says even commonly priced 32GB kits that were under $100 a year ago have climbed past $350 recently, while larger capacities like 64GB are reported at around $680, and it notes shortages and sustained manufacturing constraints may last through 2030.
