HDDs have doubled in price recently too. Not a good time to try building a computer.

[–] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Building a computer like 5 years from now will be a weird experience because you will buy most parts from brands that you have never heard of. Very few of the manufacturers we know today will still be around by that time.

They will have Chinese RAM by then, so yeah, its going to be the random made up Amazon/Temu Chinese brands.

I thought the chinese brand "Moore Threads" was quite dope.

Don't worry, China is about to flood the market. Don't buy RAM yet, wait for the prices to normalize first.

What if they decide to just keep their rare earth metals for themselves and control the entire market?

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They already announced they are mass producing RAM and are going to export. So the market is going to be flooded.

[–] schipelblorp@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm saying they could corner the market on components they can manufacture by banning export of the raw resources they control. Threatening rare earth metal exports was how they got Trump to heel.
