More insane price gouging courtesy of AI (or using it as a pretense, it doesn't really matter): 600$ for a 2x32GiB DDR5-6000 kit. For reference, exactly one year ago I bought 2x48GiB ECC DDR5-5600 DIMMs for 580€. That's an enterprise product which had a significant markup over consumer memories, and it was also top-specced and recently released, which added an equally larger markup over the 32GiB version.
