yeah all my ram is going way up in price.

I had hundreds of gpus and many mobos.

the ram and the ssds are all worth more than the purchase prices I paid for them.

hard to believe a 30 dollar stick of ram is now over 50

Is there a big market for used computer junk in the US?
I see that 32GB and higher memory sticks are getting more expensive, but you can always find inexpensive 4x4GB options on the used market.
I also don't see much of a price increase for budget graphics cards. The RX 5060 8GB costs between $400 and $450, depending on the model in Russia. Two months ago, the price wasn't much lower, maybe a $20-$30 difference.

A new Board Channel report claims NVIDIA and add-in board partners have set a Q1 2026 supply mix that puts most volume into a small set of GeForce RTX 50 models. The report says the combined share for three SKUs is about 75%.

The backdrop is the same one we have been hearing for weeks. DRAM supply is tight and GDDR procurement costs are rising. Partners have already been linking availability issues to memory constraints.

In this updated plan, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB is described as the main “volume” model for the quarter. The GeForce RTX 5060 8GB is listed as the second most common option. The next priority is the GeForce RTX 5070.
