    I’ve avoided updating my computer for years over one overpriced component of another. GPU and now DRAM.

      Same. And with my computer not being windows 11 compatible it gave me the push to get rid of my windows partition all together. The tech industry is very good at making their products as unappealing as possible.

      Now is the time to buy a graphics card at or below MSRP before the ram prices spike them back up.

      Same. Built my box 10 years ago next summer and she’s still clinging to life. One day I’ll be able to upgrade… maybe.

          There’s only a handful of games worth playing that a 10 year old mid-range computer can’t play anyway. I don’t see the point of upgrading for Indianna Jones or COD.
