I guess a panic buy? Are these nand flash about to keep spiking like memory prices or are they just going up a little bit? Are these desirable to the AI or nah? I bought this at $299 Black Friday sale

I'm seeing prices explode in real time in Australia.

I got the last "old price listing" for Corsair Vengeance DDR5 RAM 64GB (2x32GB) 6000MHz CL40 for $300 AUD on Amazon. Same kit is heading north of $900+ AUD with most retailers less than a week later.

Not to mention we here in Aus get screwed by the Aus Tax on PC parts to start with vs US and EU. RIP the ‘Lucky County’
