Many people are curious about the current RAM prices. I'm thinking of getting 32GB of DDR5, but it's priced at $400 at Best Buy, which feels a bit outrageous. Should I buy it now or wait? What are your thoughts?

I found a great deal and bought a 32GB 6000/CL36 kit on Facebook Marketplace for just $120! It was the Trident Z Neo RAM, which fit perfectly into my build. Definitely check there for deals!
I’d recommend waiting a bit unless you’re in immediate need. Prices are high right now, so unless you're building a PC right now, it’s probably best to hold off.
If you’re looking to build a PC right now, then it makes sense to buy the RAM now. Otherwise, it might be worth waiting a bit to see if prices come down.
If you really need RAM for your setup, go ahead and buy it. But if it's not urgent, waiting might be a better option since prices could drop later.
I actually have a 4090 and a Ryzen 7 5800X3D, but I wanted to upgrade to the Ryzen 9 7950X3D. The RAM prices are just stopping me from moving forward.
