The RAM crisis is resurrecting DDR4 memory and motherboard production as hardware cycle reverses - CPU, GPU, and RAM production are going back in time, for consumers anyway

Can someone that explain this to me? Why are companies choosing to make older parts available again instead of just making the new shit?

DDR4 slower therefore less demand from AI

The whole situation sucks, but realistically DDR4 is still fine. I’m using it on the 2 best PCs in my house. The other computers use older shit. I can run modern games at 100+ FPS on a big screen and even in VR.
