I'm going to be honest and say I don't know much about hardware.

I want add some more RAM to my PC, but I'm not sure if I should wait for lower prices. I don't need the RAM urgently, but I'm not sure if prices will go down enough in the future to justify waiting for months or years.

Do any of you expect that there's going to be substantial drops in RAM prices within the next year?

No one can say for sure. The answer is likely "no". We're waiting for the AI bubble to burst and some of these AI companies to go broke so their demand collapses. No one knows how long that will take. Likely not soon.
