RAM now represents 35 percent of bill of materials for HP PCs

Holy fuck. That is insane. It used to be something like 5-10% max.

35% is the kind of numbers I used to have on servers at work, which often feature >2TB of RAM.

(another similar percentage being the CPUs, 128 cores per socket doesn’t come cheap)

Seeing those numbers for desktop hardware, “holy fuck” is about right.

For data center shit, it’s probably up in the 70-80% range (unless you’re also running shitloads of H100s or A100s or whatever top of the line is these days)

And it’s never going away because the technology for RAM by subscription is right around the corner.

VDI has been a thing for over a decade now.
