24 alternatives to RAM Prices
I was inspired by this discussion https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39066480 about diskprices.com last month, and decided to go ahead and make a site for RAM. It's my first time building anything like this! Any tips / suggestions / calls for complete overhaul are welcome :)
RAM Prices tracks historical and current pricing for RAM modules, allowing users to monitor how memory costs fluctuate over time. The site is designed for anyone interested in computer hardware pricing trends, whether… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. Prices are shown for the 1 we have checked on their own sites, 1 of them free or with a free tier. RAM Prices launched in 2024; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

I built a small weekend project to help track RAM prices, since DDR3/DDR4/DDR5 costs have suddenly jumped recently and I was struggling to find good deals for my NAS build. RamScout scans eBay (UK/US) and ranks RAM listings by price per GB, with filters for type, capacity, speed, condition, etc. It’s a simple MVP — no frills, no accounts, no ads — just a fast way to spot unusually cheap listings. Would appreciate any feedback, especially on performance, UI, and whether expanding to more regions/vendors would be useful. Thanks!

Howdy! Keeping with the trend of being influenced by https://diskprices.com, I wanted to make a resource for GPUs on eBay that also take into account a performance metric I tend to look at when checking GPUs. It's still a work in progress, but it's at a state where I think some of HN might find it useful! There are a few things that I have planned to add in the coming day(s): 1. Filters for compatible slots and connectors 2. Expand for different eBay regions, rather than just US focus Let me know if you have any questions or want more / different filters on the page or if I…

Started PC flipping as a hobby (buying used parts, building PCs, and selling them for a small profit). Found that focusing on used parts on eBay gives the best margins - like finding a GPU 20% below market, pairing it with other deals, and selling the complete build locally. I discovered that eBay marketplaces (.com, .de, .co.uk etc.) often have different prices for the same items! Or just completely different items. So I built an eBay price scanner for PC components. It scans listings across different Ebay markets, calculates median prices, and flags anything selling below market (including…

Hey HN! Christine and Steven here. As a PM and engineer, we’ve both evaluated and purchased a lot of software. One of the biggest frustrations was figuring out how much it would cost us without having to go through the sales process. When we did have a quote, we had no idea if we were getting a good deal or ripped off. We built a site where you can see what other companies are actually paying for SaaS and enterprise software. Buyers contribute prices via quotes, pricing proposals, and other documentation to ensure quality. We unlocked Talkdesk for Show HN users so that you can use the…

In the responses to Low Cost Mini PCs (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41389931), I saw some requests for a similar site but for laptops. To improve on existing tools like https://pcpartpicker.com/products/laptop/, I added PassMark scores (with a lot of regex!) and live prices from Amazon. I also added panel types and refresh rates, and sorted results by a weighted rating, which takes the number of reviews into account. Please let me know if you have any suggestions, thanks! P.S: you can sort by multiple columns using ctrl+click (thanks to…

Motherboard▲388I started working on my ideas a few months ago. I've shipped 4 apps so far. I love my numbers, so every morning I'd go through the payments dashboard, analytics, bug reports, feature requests, and everything else for each app. I wished for a single place to view it all, so I built Motherboard. It runs locally in the browser and tracks any visible data point from any website with just a click. A single dashboard for everything. Life's good.

Hey HN. I made a site[0] to browse disk prices by $/TB on eBay similar to labgopher[1]. The other diskprices[2] site only uses data from Amazon. - https://unli.xyz/diskprices/ - https://labgopher.com/ - https://diskprices.com/

Computable GPU Index (CGI)free▲444Hey we are Computable. We spent years building trading infrastructure at Jump Trading and Coinbase. From that point of view, compute looks like energy markets before 2000: everything trades through private bilateral leases, there’s no visible price, and nothing can be resold. The same H100 rents at a 2x spread depending on who’s asking, and once you sign a 24-month lease, it can never change hands. So we built a market for GPU nodes, sold by the calendar week. Here are three things you can do on it that you can’t do anywhere else: - Buy exactly the weeks you need. Three nodes for the last…

I've made a GPU comparison site: https://gpu-prices.com/US/ Yes, there was one yesterday - I got beaten to it. This one is different in that I've put a lot of work into categorisation, so you can filter down quite precisely. For example, VRAM-per-dollar, limiting to Nvidia, and a minimum performance score allow you to find good ML GPUs. It currently supports Australia, Canada, Ireland, the UK, and the US. The tech stack is Python for data pull and static site generation then Cloudflare Pages for actually serving the site. It updates three times a day, but I could increase…

Hi HN, I built a very minimal website that tracks disk prices from Amazon and presents them in a clean, sortable table: https://diskprices-frontend.vercel.app/ . Motivation: I often needed to quickly check the cost per TB/GB across different storage types (HDDs, SSDs, flash cards, tapes, etc.) and found most existing tools too cluttered or outdated. So I decided to build a lightweight frontend that fetches the data and makes it easy to compare. Features: Sort by price per TB or per GB. Filter by capacity, brand, media type, or condition. Focused only on Amazon data for…

The overall idea is to chart out the thousands of Mini PCs by benchmark and reveal the Pareto Front so you can get the most Compute per Dollar. Definitely a labor of love as I have a number of Mini PCs for my "homelab" (TrueNAS, piHole, Plex, basic stuff). It uses Gemini to extract specs from listings (since they're not often strongly categorized). Quick blog post here: https://luke.zip/posts/pareto-pcs/

Out of curiosity, I put together a simple website which tracks the prices for a few variations of A100/H100 GPUs by hour broken out between spot/ondemand, form factor and provider. Specifically I was tailoring the tool towards the smaller, emerging providers like runpod, gpulist.ai, lambda labs etc. Anyone have any ideas to expand/refine it?

A bit late in the new diskprices-like website trend, but here's my contribution to the ecosystem. The goal here is to get an instant comparison of the laptops on ebay, using mostly 3 metrics of now: CPU benchmark rank, GPU benchmark rank, and price, without having to scroll through the item description or google the PC model. At the moment there are some parsing bugs, and some components that aren't parsed yet. I also quickly run into the ebay rate limit, making it hard to maintain an hour-by-hour listing. Curious to know what you guys think!

Like others, I was inspired by the article on diskprices.com, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39066480 and I thought GPUs would be a good product for this style of site (but I have been beaten to the punch for the GPUprices.com domain). How it's done: I have used the Amazon product API (PAAPI v5), as I had access due to having at least 3 sales with the amazon affiliate program. Using the API and some python code I'm able to curate searches somewhat, removing things like water blocks, laptops and full systems that show up when sorting by price. I have used a static page…

Hey everyone! My name is Toutoulliou, and I’m a beginner developer passionate about building websites. To practice and improve my skills, I decided to take on a real-world project: a price comparison tool for tech products like SSDs, HDDs, NAS devices, Micro SD cards, USB drives, and more. I used Django for the backend, TailwindCSS and Flowbite for the design, and even managed the deployment myself using Docker. It was a real challenge, but so rewarding! My website pulls data from eBay and AliExpress APIs to bring you the best deals on the market. And here’s some exciting news: integration…
