Hey, would you like to buy some dehydrated water?
Easily produce your own water whenever you need it!
To make 1 liter of water, just add 1 liter of water!
Just buy two old 8GB ddr3 sticks and solder them together to make a 16GB ddr6 stick? Cheaper and one better than ddr5.
There’s still the same key problem - the memory chips have a very low available supply. Increasing the supply requires new semiconductor fabs to be built, which takes a very long time.
Outside of that, I guess it could be described as right-to-repair. If you have a bad stick of RAM, it’s likely that some or all of the chips are still good and could be reused.
Still waiting for that DDR5 update so I can download more RAM… Funny how old memes can make a full recovery to relevance.
Using zram genuinely feels like downloading ram.
Oh so they’re going to open their own fab are they?
Their solution to the RAM shortage problem is for the RAM shortage problem to in fact not exist. Obviously that doesn’t work.
It will work if you have a extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machine to make the RAM chips. /s
I mean, this is understandable. But how much are you actually saving to justify the extra work? How many ICs can you burn and still be saving money?
Afaik, it costs 24k rub for 32GB to DiY. 40k for the cheapest DIMM kit I could find
I see! Then as far as I can tell this is viable for your own use if you already have tools and knowledge on how to solder ICs. Plausibly it is not economical for any person to do. I guess you could do it for profit, but margins may be quite low if you account for time; but I may be wrong on this.
