With DDR5 RAM prices skyrocketing, some mid-range laptops could soon ship with budget-level specs. TrendForce expects companies like Dell and Lenovo to stock more notebooks with 8GB of memory. These reasonably priced options may no longer handle intense office and gaming tasks.

      While I am on a desktop, I am also happy that that I bought 64 GB of relatively high performance DDR4.

      It looks like I will have to stay with my AM4 system for at least another 2-3 years. It works very well, the only thing that I am missing is an update to 5800X3D, which unfortunately is impossible to get for a fair price since it was a one-time run only it seems.
