"I've been saving for months to get the Corsair Dominator 64GB CL30 kit," one beleagured PC builder wrote on Reddit. "It was about $280 when I looked," said u/RaidriarT, "Fast forward today on PCPartPicker, they want $547 for the same kit? A nearly 100% increase in a couple months?"

If you just want an easy way to setup AI on Windows or Linux, KoboldCPP is my recommendation for your backend. It supports the GGUF format, which allows you to use both RAM and VRAM simultaneously. It won't be the fastest thing, but it is easy enough to setup, with a bundled GUI for prep and actual usage. Through the IP address it gives, you can hook the backend into a frontend of choice.
