Are we constrained by RAM production?

RAM Price per GB Projected to decline at 15% per annum.

That's quite a few years before you'll get double the RAM.

For mobile I'm guessing power constraints matter too.

My guess was that nvidia is limiting memory size on consumer cards to avoid cannibalizing their commercial/industrial sales. I see no reason why a 5060 or 5070 can't come with 64/128/512gb memory outside of intentional decisions to not support those memory sizes; I don't need a 5090 as I don't need more than ~20-40 tokens/s as a 1-4 user household system
