Comment by OroPla | original | Court denies motion to dismiss DRAM price fixing case

It wouldn't be down to luck, you just wouldn't be able to buy it. All the RAM would have been sold out about a year ago and you wouldn't have been able to buy any RAM at whatever price and wouldn't be able to for maybe years to come.

You can still buy 64GB DDR5 RAM today. It just costs a little over a thousand dollars. This price discourages enough buyers for there to be stock left.

Of course, this assumes there is no price fixing going on, which hasn't been determined, yet.
