    If it means I might be able to upgrade in the future, so be it.

      If you’re in the US you won’t. Guarantee that Trump will slap enough tariffs on them that they’re more expensive than current prices.

        More supply should still lower prices, even if Trump puts tariffs on Chinese dram/nand. While there might be some quality differences in the end dram/nand still is a commodity good that is for the most part interchangeable (assuming it meets some standards).

        So China would just supply everyone else leaving more capacity from other manufacturers like micron for the US.

        Should still put pressure on the big 3 to drop prices HOPEFULLY. Because those of us not in the US will enjoy actual competition.

        Why? It’s not like the U.S manufactures RAM and that Chinese RAM would compete with them.

          Micron is an American company and does manufacture in the US in addition to multiple other countries actually.

          Not sure if the Koreans do any of their DRAM or NAND manufacturing in the US and too lazy to google at this point
