I’m sure those tariffs have some impact in the US, but ram prices are outrageously high outside the US as well. They’re not the real factor here.
I’m just quoting the article. Sounds like you have more to add, care to comment on what IS ‘the real factor’?
Deals between AI giants and ram manufacturers. That’s what’s creating the shortage and driving up the real prices.
Well, he didn’t necessarily lie, August 1st wasn’t day 1 of his presidency. He didn’t say anything about rising costs afterwards!
