Love that hardware is literally becoming more expensive now instead of getting cheaper.

I was hoping to wait until a 24GB version came out of this next gen but looks like I'll be skipping it. Thankful I bought my RAM kits beffore this fiasco and I'm on AM4 platform. My main gaming computer is built. Got most of the parts for my data cruncher - just need power supply really. The AM4 platform is more than capable of running everything maxed out for now.

Wonder how much 7900xtx are going for now, but I really don't need that with a data cruncher, though BONIC can use it. I suspect people will be scrambling for last gen and refurbished parts. But I really want that 9950x3D2 with that massive L3 cache. Just to see it tear things to pieces. Guess I got to wait till AM 6, Zen 9, R420xXx in 2030 now. d20-ah-fuck but also michael-rosen
