Tariffs on RAM and semiconductors haven’t even started yet you turkey lol.
As I said, RAM prices have exploded all over the world. Trumps tariffs don’t affect other countries. They exploded BEFORE any tariffs were announced. The announced tariffs haven’t even begun being enforced yet lol
Bullshit. There's been 20-25% tarrifs on ALL goods from China, Mexico, and Canada.
There have not. Google it. Google tariffs on ram.
One of the ram manufacturers is in America btw.
It's NOT just ram, even though that is the major contributor currently, and American companies still buy shit that is tarrifed. It all gets passed down. I design PCBs and buy electronics/parts/computers/network infrastructure for a living. It's been a constant issue. So anyway, good times, by forever.
