This caught me by surprise.... When I saw the quotation list come in for DDR3 8GB sticks (which are easily the most popular for 2 slot boards etc.) I was shocked... They were more expensive (new) than DDR4... So in today's video we are going to get to the reasons for this, and what you can do if you come into this situation where you need more memory.
