In recent times, there has been a memory price surge sweeping across the globe. A reporter's investigation in the Huaqiangbei Electronics Market in Shenzhen found that whether it is a basic office computer or a high-end gaming console, the cost has significantly increased due to the soaring memory prices. One merchant said, "The cheapest 16GB Kingston RAM stick was around 200 yuan last year in April or May, now it's basically over 800 yuan. 32GB memory used to be 800 yuan, now it may cost around 3800 yuan, an increase of about 300%." The doubling of memory prices has directly raised the cost of the whole computer. Faced with such a market situation, users with limited budgets are starting to budget more carefully and even turning to the second-hand market for alternative solutions.
