Why should you buy a high capacity memory kit? A better question is: why not?

G,Skill Trident Z5 RGB DDR4-6400 2x32GB

As everyone is aware, the world is facing some major economic headwinds right now, with inflation in particular being a hot topic. A dollar today just doesn't go as far as it did before the pandemic. But while graphics cards and motherboards have taken steps up in price, SSDs and DDR memory have gone in the opposite direction.

Now is a fantastic time to take the plunge on a memory upgrade. In fact, prices have decreased so much, our thinking is that higher capacity kits are absolutely worth considering. As is traditionally the case with memory, faster speeds and higher capacities deliver diminishing performance returns, but for the sake of an few extra dollars, it really is worth buying a higher capacity kit that will happily last you for many years.
