RAM and HDD prices are jumping (2025)

[supukabi]

Cl40 ddr5 16gb rams which were available for 4k now it’s almost 10k really needed to upgrade my 13yr old pc but these prices. Bought 1tb ssd at 4.5k now it’s 8k. Don’t know when we will be able to build pc again.

its a weird phenomenon HDD prices have never dropped in india in the past decade since 1+ tb drives showed up. I always wondered why?

So basically we are doomed as far as storage and memory parts prices are concerned. Last I checked even 1Tb hdd costing 8K and ram 8gb stick near bout similar lines now in offline. All this gst fiasco rose the prices further. While these same gov emp getting free high end pc macbooks and what not
