And all this is just because .... AI demand.

Rather they grabbed a fancy reason to increase prices because of greed.

The few big ram production companies likely had a chat and decided: "Hey, more money? Yea! More money! We like more money!"

But of course they do, their shareholders wouldn't like it otherwise. Capitalism 101. 🤷

No, it’s actually not because of the AI demand. AI is a demand metric but not enough to cause the hikes we’re seeing and (as the manufacturers want us to) even preparing for.
