  • description: Why are PC memory prices up a ridiculous 700% over the last four years, with a simple DDR5 kit skyrocketing from $90 to $500 in just six months? While tech giants blame the massive AI boom and HBM production shifts for these supply constraints, an explosive new class-action lawsuit alleges something much more sinister, coordinated price-fixing. In this video, we dive deep into the shady economics of the memory industry, how manufacturers manipulate the "binning process" to prioritize high-margin server contracts, and whether these corporate giants are using the AI bubble as the ultimate cover-up to secure record-breaking profits.
