I think I read a story that legal action was been considered against samsung, micron etc for ram prices about 6 months ago, and here we are now with ram prices almost half of what I paid for my 32 gigs, its amazing what a threat of legal action can do.

Sorry for the interupting reply, I am curious as to the difference between an OEM cpu and a retail one, as far as I understand it, they are both the same apart from the box and warranty?

The i9 9900k, do you guys think its a good cpu that will be good for at least 2 years? and because the OEM is slightly cheaper and its the same chip is that the one to go for? especially if its used with a decent cooler?
The 32GB of ram I bought back in May 2018 still has the same £450 price as when I bought it

The ram I bought, Corsair 16GB kit, was £200 about 6 months ago, now it's £130 - so a 35% reduction.. When I bought my Ryzen 1700 system the same kit was £99, that was nearly 2 years ago - same kits each time.
