A collective "giving up" and letting AI bros win. Edit: It would appear my use the word 'retailers' has rustled some jimmies. I happen to agree with the bothered folk upon considering my word choice, so I changed it to the one I meant.

Are PC builders spending way more money these days? Or are they sacrificing other components to hit 32GB of RAM?

It's because of Chinese holidays iirc, and a lot of Chinese gaming cafes use 5070s and 5060 Tis, and since they're more active they're participating in the Steam surveys more. You can see this based off the fact Chinese increased almost 8% in device language as well.

I think these people bought their 32GB sticks before RAMmageddon.

32 gigs is the ideal, and I don't think people want to wait 2-3 years for prices to drop to a "semi-normal" level

the way I see it is that PC building has become so expensive that people are now having the mindset of "i might as well spend all this money and future proof my PC so I wont have to worry about it for many years to come"

It’s either pay 500 now or 1000 later.

If I'm going to overpay, might as well cash out and get 32GB and not suffer with 16 for years until things "might" get normal again. Bought 32GB for new build this year in February, spent 350$. I couldn't wait any more with my i7 4770K on 16GB of DDR3 I bet a lot of people have the same thought process when building themselves

It's simple, really. People are thinking if they don't get their hands on good ram & gpus now, they'll never get a chance in the future.
