Boy was I wrong. Months later RAM prices started to drop like a rock. 24 GB of Corsair DDR3 1600 RAM is selling on Newegg.ca right now for $147. The price of that RAM is $6.1 per GB. The RAM I purchased cost me $27.5 per GB. It's crazy to think in only a year and a half the price of RAM has dropped that much. We are only a couple years away from DDR4 RAM so get ready for even LOWER DDR3 prices, that is unless you actually still care about DDR3 when that happens!

RAM Prices
Last summer after classes were over, I bought computer parts off Newegg.ca to make myself a new computer. I purchased a pair of G.SKILL RAM sticks for a total of 4GB and thought I was the king.
