Not sure if I'll be able to wait until 2019! I want this rig done asap ahaha

Good news.

Recently built a Ryzen rig and went with 2 x 4GB as I had a strict budget and RAM prices were on the high side. Happy to wait until next year to pick up 2 x 8GB.

Old news, prices been dropping since Summer and will continue dropping over next months, I am sure by Summer next year they will be a further 20% cheaper as the prices typically drop by around 1% every two weeks from IC.

That is why 3000MHz 16G kits are no longer £200 and are now closer to £100 and will be £100 next week.

I hope so Gibbo I should be able to afford the upgrade to 32GB by then.

What Ram do I need for 9700k and Ryzen 2700k?

I bought Kingston Fury Black 2666mhz 16GB (2x8GB) for £180 on july 12, now its £120 for the same memory. I might buy another 16gb next week for futureproof, because hopefully I am going to keep my setup for 5yrs+

That is a huge, huge decrease in price :cool:

Will it go any lower by thurs?

I hope the Kingston Fury Black 2666mhz 16GB (2x8GB) comes down to about the 100 mark when I order, but Im not ordering till next thurs now, so fingers and toes crossed.

Prices are definitely plummeting daily so should be hitting those makes easily by the end of next week.

Agreed, prices are finally coming down which is now allowing me to build a decent setup for my daughter at last. I'm regularly checking and tracking to catch the early bird on not just memory, but CPU's too.

We were doing £109 few weeks ago for 3000MHz is better deal.

Others just slow to catch us up!

We shall do a nice 3000 deal kit soon on both 8G and 16g kit, probably around £55 on 8G 3000 kit and £99 on 16g for 3000

I can already get Corsair Vengeance RGB 16G 3000 for £99.98?

When will these deals go live? I'm eager to pull the trigger...

Any CPU deals incoming?

The deal is up in advance of black Friday - TeamGroup Vulcan T-Force 16gb 3000MHz Dual Channel Kit - £99.95 Link https://www.overclockers.co.uk/team-group-vulcan-t-force-16gb-2x8gb-ddr4-pc4-24000c16-3000mhz-dual-channel-kit-grey-tlgd416g30-my-087-tg.html#

I bet the lack of good prices for Intel cpu's, and lack of supply in general, is reducing memory sold.

Memory sales are massively up as CPU business for ocuk is triple that of precious year.

No stock shortage at OcUk on CPUs
