If we're going to see retailers price-gouging on DDR5, maybe people will be willing to buy slightly older gear with DDR4 (and corresponding motherboard and CPU).

Especially for systems for which the workloads are actually bound by GPU compute, network, or storage.

I'm still on DDR4 but I hope this price gouging will be over by the time I need to finally upgrade :( I have a Ryzen so I did upgrade to the latest AM4 generation.
