It's a play to make at home compute unachievable, forcing people to pay for subscription cloud services and cloud compute in walled gardens.

    I don't agree. The prices will rise across the board no matter where you site the memory or if it's in a gaming computer or otherwise. Renting will always be more expensive than owning because competitors must recoup the capital cost of buying and make margin at the same time.
