For the first few years after DDR5 motherboards and memory arrived on the market, it made more sense to continue building ...

RAM prices are skyrocketing after a long period of relative stabilityDDR4 64GB kits have climbed from near $150 to around ...

What is RAM?Over the past few years, nearly every PC component, including storage drives, graphics accelerators, motherboards, and CPUs, has seen significant performance updates—everything except the ...

If you have an older PC and are considering a memory upgrade, you might want to do it sooner than later. Prices for DDR4 memory are expected to jump sharply as the major memory vendors phase out their ...

TL;DR: DDR4 and GDDR6 memory prices are set to surge by up to 43% in Q3 2025 due to end-of-life status, supply shortages, and shifting production to DDR5 and GDDR7 technologies. This trend impacts PC ...

The DDR4 memory market has experienced significant turbulence over the past month, as major manufacturers discontinue older production lines. This shift has triggered a surge in speculative purchasing ...

Buying RAM is all about timing. No, not timings, as in latencies—well, that too—but when you actually pull the trigger on a new memory kit. Pricing fluctuates over time, and more recently has been ...

It's time we take a fresh look at DDR4 vs. DDR5 memory, using the "new" Intel Core i9-14900K. The last time we compared DDR4 and DDR5 memory was nearly two years ago using the i9-12900K in 41 games.

Intel introduced the consumer market to DDR4 with the introduction of the X99 platform. These are the early days of DDR4, and top kits are in the 3300MHz range, which is quite modest considering DDR4 ...

As modern games push memory harder, choosing the right amount of RAM matters more than ever. With DRAM pricing in flux, we revisit the big question: ...

Physical weaknesses in memory chips that make computers and servers susceptible to hack attacks dubbed “Rowhammer” are more exploitable than previously thought and extend to DDR4 modules, not just ...
