The current flash deal on the Corsair Vengeance DDR5 RAM kit offers a price of $344, reflecting a 15% discount from its regular price of $400. However, this sale price is significantly higher than the $110 retail price observed just months ago, indicating a troubling trend in the market.
Amazon has marked this deal as "Deal selling fast," suggesting a sense of urgency for consumers. Despite savings of $55, buyers may feel they are still overpaying due to the drastic increase in RAM prices, which have surged in recent months.
Additionally, with the ongoing shortage of memory and potential changes to GPU pricing by Nvidia, industry experts warn that PC hardware costs are expected to rise further in the coming years.
