The cheapest 32GB DDR5 6000 memory kit now costs $449.97, up from the $400 price tracked in August, Tom's Hardware reports. The outlet tracks that memory specification daily and says RAM prices have increased by more than 500% since last year.

A slower 32GB DDR5 4800 kit costs $399 at Corsair, compared with its previous $80 price. Buyers can still find savings through component bundles, while price increases have reached prebuilt computers more slowly than standalone parts.
