Original: The RAM shortage is bringing back DDR4

A global shortage of memory chips is pushing PC makers and gamers back toward older DDR4 memory, The Verge reports. As DDR5 prices climb and supplies tighten, Intel and AMD platforms that still support DDR4 are seeing renewed interest, with older modules fetching surprisingly high prices. The shift shows how the memory crunch is reshaping building choices across the PC market.

Why now: Memory prices are surging due to a supply shortage, forcing buyers and manufacturers to reconsider older DDR4 hardware.
