The same source has also offered an update in regard to the Switch 2’s potential DLSS support and ray-tracing capabilities.

      don’t know where you got that idea, but 16gb of ddr3 can be gotten easily for $30, as where 16gb of ddr5 is going to run you $100 minimum (talking retail prices, obv)

        Just looked up the cheapest new 16G options in Turkey

        • Ddr3: 1195₺ ~ $44
        • Ddr4: 837₺ ~ $31
        • Ddr5: 1179₺ ~ $44

        Ddr5 is cheaper than you think

        I think there is a difference (like you said) between you picking up 2 sticks of remaining DDR3 stock and a console manufacturer sourcing it for their new console.
