I'm sure it doesn't help that motherboard manufacturers have increasingly been targeting "whale" consumers over the last 10-15 years. I remember when a top of the line motherboard would cost you $300; and an average board was around $100-150.
Wonder if we'll be getting consumer grade SoCs that are CPUs with integrated RAM.

Honestly, probably a buy opportunity for good ddr5 motherboards. When the bubble bursts then you can buy the ram for pennies.
Yeah in 2035 when we've moved to DDR7
You'll be happy with the government supplied computers whether you like it or not.
