A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions


Rules: (interactive)


1) Be nice and; have funDoxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].


5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.


6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world


7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.


8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.


Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Buy it in a system and resell the system with a lower capacity.

[–] TrollAccount69@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Actually what ram do you need? I’ll gladly sell you some.

[–] lemmingsareawesome@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

how much for 32gb (or 48gb) ddr5?

[–] TrollAccount69@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I sold my last ddr5 on Friday.

[–] lemmingsareawesome@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

let me know when you have some avaible

[–] TrollAccount69@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If you’re building a computer it might be worthwhile to target older, ddr4 platforms in order to save money. Idk what your goal is.

[–] lemmingsareawesome@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

already have a laptop but it only uses ddr5 🥀

[–] TrollAccount69@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh, your best bet is to buy an existing system with the ram you want and resell it once you swap the components out.

[–] lemmingsareawesome@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

ppl buy resell without the ram?

[–] TrollAccount69@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago

Not for as much, but yes. Go to eBay and use the filtering tools to see sold listings for yourself. Use the auction only checkbox to see.
