Server Pricing Report – July 2020

Welcome to the seventh installment of our monthly server price reporting for 2020.

If you were following along, last year we’ve been tracking changing parts prices for RAM, SSDs, Hard Drives, CPUs, and a couple of GPUs. Typically this is done monthly, and then shared on our blog.

Currently, all listed prices are from eBay, for used hardware. I may start tracking more new hardware as well if there is a demand for it.

Prices as of 20th July 2020

+ or – indicates if the price has gone up or down since last month
