Wut?

Somebody had PC Part Picker [1] on a different thread. Found it kind of helpful. 3x, 3.5x, and 4x is relatively common across most memory types. DDR4-3200 2x32GB is one of the few that appears to have flattened slightly at 2.5x, although most DDR4-3200 is not as severe as other DDR4 or DDR5. None of the other lines appear to have flattened significantly yet.

ECC memory has been one of my better investments in the past two years, and now because of the crashes it might have prevented.

Just earlier this year I pad 35$ for 64gb lrdimm stick (420$ total for 12).

Now each stick is over 180$.


Kind of wish I went for 2x48GB last year, not 2x32GB. Oh well.
