Incoming stories about people buying two packs and "returning one" with both blanks in it
Gamers can have a little sawdust in their bread, as a treat 
What relief are you talking about? The relief of falling for false advertising?
Capitalism is so fucking stupid
Literal "you will own nothing and you will be happy"
i thought we were supposed to be buying ram from that Chinese company now
I believe they are still ramping up production and focused on domestic sales at this point. They are also still in the process of developing the ability to produce the high-capacity sticks.
It's like skins but for hardware.
The only "filler" I want to talk about is cheese because it tastes good.
10 more years of DDR3 for me
Decoy sticks to protect against RAM predators has been standard for years at this point. I don't know why everyone's freaking out about it just now.
4G is more than enough RAM for any reasonable home use computing application and you gamers are just wasting resources. All you deserve is a RAM slot powered LED daughter board.
There is no non capitalist reason why every home computer can't have 64GB of RAM or more.
That’s nonsense. I regularly use over 16 gb on my machine working on personal projects. Not to mention if I want to add web browsing, music, or call somebody at the same time lol.
Lol what? If you want to do any sort of image processing or 3d work you regularly need upwards of 20 gigs unless you want to be hammering spinning rust as you swap for 20 years.
retvrn
the loud mechanical noises mean it's thinking.
Programmers (and more OS and browsers) are very wasteful too. I won't pretend there were no improvements in software features but you could do all of that with a quarter of that.
dual channel memory is overrated actually. just buy your RGB-slop
