I've heard that this year 70% of all production capacity went to HBM.
Just an hour ago I found a stick that isn't officially supported, but has all the right parameters, so 5600MHz, CL46, JEDEC compliance (of course), no XMP. We'll see if it's going to be an expensive mistake.
On that topic: the other day a friend of mine was complaining that his parents' laptop has locked-down UEFI, aside from other anti-consumer practices.
That laptop, with 16GB RAM, costed 16.6% less than the stick I just bought.
