They haven't been used for 2-3 years, typically lasting closer to 4-5 years. Existing 16Gb memory ICs explain the availability of 32GB DIMMs (those are confirmed dual-rank for DDR4). Since costs have dropped significantly, producing affordable 16GB DIMMs is practical. Dual-rank options are more economical, especially with 4x8GB configurations. While a substantial savings isn't usually justified, it remains sensible. The only reliable method to obtain dual-rank memory now is purchasing B die kits, which currently cost around $200 for the most basic 2x16GB set. A 4x8GB kit is about $130-140 for a 3200MHz CL16 version, which is marginally more expensive than the cheaper 2x16GB at 3200MHz CL14, and a single-rank alternative that outperforms it is $140 (3600MHz CL16). This offers similar pricing but with a simpler memory controller design.
