Retail prices for DDR5 in Germany are finally showing signs of calming down a bit after soaring in recent months. The decline is small and not yet uniform across models, but it is the first sustained easing that many homebrew PC enthusiasts and small businesses have noticed since prices began to soar in late 2025 and recently reached astronomical levels. A widely shared community chart tracks average 32GB DDR5 kits across the European Union, capturing a rise from the fall through early February and then a decline in the second half. While this chart serves as a broad signal, it leaves important details unresolved, such as the exact kit it was measured in, the countries it is included in, and whether the listed price includes taxes.

To add more information, we independently checked historical listings on Amazon Germany using CamelCamelCamel and found that some mainstream 32GB DDR5 kits have fallen from their highs. Two of the biggest declines were in popular models from Corsair and Kingston, while other brands recorded smaller declines. There are several possible reasons for the softness. Buyers may pause upgrades after the price spikes. Some retailers may lower prices to move inventory and reduce inventory risk. It is also possible that a small amount of additional supply passed through a distribution chain separate from the AI ​​supply chain. However, all of these explanations require more detail. A full return to normal prices will likely require a clearer improvement in production capacity or a sustained reduction in demand, but this improvement may only be a short-term adjustment.
