BUCKLE UP BUCKEROOOS. WE ARE JUST STARTING. THE DARK AGES HAVE COME, PERSONAL COMPUTING IS DEAD AND WE DONT KNOW IT YET. SAY HELLO TO CLOUD COMPUTING IN EVERY SINGLE DEVICE
guess I'll just go back to reading books
learn how to use the catalog pajeet
>>107793289Suck my cockalog bitch
>>107793207>YOU GUYS THOUGHT THIS SITUATION WOULD GET BETTER IN 2026?Nope. There were no signs that it would get better, short of the AI bubble popping within the next couple of months.
>>107793207I got a cheap pc
>>107793207boomers did it with 32kb ,we can do it too.>you'll be left behindand i will be free.
>>107793344I made my AM5 rig with rtx 3060 12 gig for cheaper than that...
>>107793313>jeet-tier responseas expected
>>107793377until your Chink aliexpress psu explodes lol
holy fuck just pay the ram prices, they're available it literally costs a few hundred more fucking brokies lmao
>>107793402I have a seasonic... Second hand prices are really good in western yurop. Got my ryzen 5 8400F for 65 euros, mobo brand new for 119, ddr5 cost me around 150 for 64 gig DDR5. I'm set till life
>>107793477>western yuropwhere the fuck are you finding these prices? I'm lookin everywhere and I get nothing like what you say. I can't find 32gb DDR4 RAM for under 200, 250!!
>>107793580France. Vinted. Got my old Am4 mobo and 8 core ryzen 7 combo for 110 euros just 1.5 years ago, 8 gig ddr4 included
>>107793580Ps ddr5 boughted it this summer. Not in the last few months of Course
>>107793580Also I just sold my 32 gig ddr4 kit for 119 euros on Vinted. Granted it went for cheap as it was 2400 mhz only, GAYMING kits go for 100 extra, or even more
I fucking hate computers so much. I should have finished my art degree
>>107793617Almost nothing benefits from higher frequencies and so I've never understood the point.All software runs like fucking sludge nowadays.
>>107793207you know what DRAM is nigger?
>>107793723There is a few percent fps increase on 3200 MHZ and more compared to 2133mhz (on ddr4 of course, in ddr5 the margins are even bigger). Also you can shave like few minutes in video rendering or such with high frequency sticks
>>107793729GUUUUUH IT'S NOT THE SAME CONSUMER STICKS SO IT WON'T AFFECT THE PRICESfucking retard. The price of the wafer is going up too, that's why Nvidia is re releasing a 2 generation old gpu now as it is just too expensive and they keep the gddr7 for Ai grade cards
>>107793723>>107793794If anything it's often more beneficial to go down in latency than go up in frequency unless it's a very significant frequency advantage.
>>107793207>article requires a paid subscriptionomg lol
>>107793994Welcome to digital news
>>107793207i am insanely high on hopium, it WILL get better, but before it does, it will get worse....way worse or maybe i am completely wrong and the world is headed towards a cyberpunk dystopia, in that case oh...well nothing we could do.
>>107793710I finished my art degree. Guess what? There's no jobs in the field. Trying to get into tech now so I don't starve to death.
>felll for the build your own pc meme>Pc shuts down randomly every 30 hours>At this rate it won't last two yearsFuuuuck
>>107793729dedotated wam
>>107794519>felllyeah such a meme, boy a laptop instead
>>107793207China is coming.Sucks to be American, but Europ will just get Chink ram.
>>107794487art degree is an excuse to bang college students. you did bang them right?
I asked what's to stop these ram companies just ripping up their contracts and demanding new ones and got told that was illegal/impossible.I guess after the Maduro yeeting, anything is possible
>>107793207Why don't they just build more fabs? If I was running a business and suddenly had massive amounts of demand I couldn't fulfill, I would be putting all my profits into growing the business.
>>107794614it takes a while to build and by then you might have too much production capacity and that would be bad as you couldn't charge as much money due to supply demand retoric
>>107794519Sounds like a psu issue. This is why you should never cheap out on a psu. It's like the most important component as if it fails horribly it can fry everything you have
>>107794614They are building fabs but it takes time and an astronomical amount of money. First yields are expected on summer 2027
>>107794656Too bad China will erase their demand by then.RIP Korean fabs, you won't be missed.
>>107793207I think the second-hand market will still allow us to build some kind of PCs in the future. Offices still need to run some client hardware, at least. Windows 11 alone needs a PC with at least 8 GB so you can open your Office webpage (pardon, Copilot, can you believe they renamed Office to Copilot WTF). Retired corporate laptops and retired workstations and servers will still be a thing. Sad, but we'll still be able to play GZDoom, Starcraft Broodwar and Skyrim with porn mods.
>>107794681I want China to win too but there is simply no physical evidence that they are catching up. Yes they made a cpu almost as good as Intel but we can't see it, nor benchmark it as it won't come to the west. Same goes for their gpu, local market only. And yes they are improving their dram and nand production batches too but again, sanctions... If you're a westerner either you go to China, build. Your shit and then come back with it, or have contacts and reverse smuggle shit (just like they smuggled 5090s inside China from another country)
>>107793207AI data centers noticed that for Ai to success consumes need to not have access to memory.We are very close on running large Ai models 120b parameters or more locally with a decent t/s output, for most normie uses and even light coding that's more that enough, much better than wasting money on a sub.
>>107793344These were surplus prebuilts, I remember watching a jap shopping youtube channel getting jewed paying 150k yen on it year ago. It only become good deal for being heavily discounted 2+ years lineup (as no one were buying them) and current situation.
