You are waaaaaay too optimistic about RAM prices. This is not a one-quarter crisis and you need to settle in for the long haul: the era of "hardware always comes down in price" is over, definitely for the next 3 years and possibly the next 5-8. The new DRAM fabs aren't even coming online until 2028 and there's not much reason to think they'll make much of a dent in the supply-demand mismatch even when they do. | |||||||||||||||||

The marginal cost of making RAM is zero and it's clear to everyone that there's near infinite demand, so the fab capacity is coming. Maybe the high end won't expand fast enough, but you can do a lot with Chinese ddr5. | |||||||||||||||||

DRAM prices have been highly cyclical for a long time. They'll come down again. | |||||||||||||||||
