In my opinion it's always the batteries that are concerning with china, never had good luck with that other stuff is fine.

There's not much point. You're stuck with AMD/Intel/Nvidia for the CPU/GPU anyway (if you actually plan on running anything acceptably), so at best you're buying a cheap chink motherboard and cooler from AliExpress that probably won't work out all that cheap in the end anyway (plus no warranty). RAM is a different matter as you should take what you can get right now, but nobody's selling this stuff yet anyway. All the chink sticks of RAM currently on AE have the same Hynix/Samsung/Micron ICs as the ones you can buy locally.
>>
>>107818811
I would say the only part worth risking would be RAM.
CPU is either AMD or Intel
GPU is either AMD Nvidia or Intel
Chinks do have cheap motherboards but they aren't that great and the driver support isn't as good as the established brands
SSDs - not worth the risk of getting something shitty
PSU - best to stick with the decent ones

Its funny because I've been saying chinese PC parts were going to be here 2 years ago and western leaders are going to bend hand and foot to XI, even trump.

He can cope by banning chinese EV's, chinese phones, chinese tech, chinese gpus. He can sanction all that but when AI and military weapons get advanced, he will have no choice to bend the knee.

Hes going to beg because america or any of its allies just cannot produce tech at the level chinese can.

For multiple reasons, due to infrastructure, governments, unstable populations, rising prices, mass immigration, infinite money printing. Chinese society is just much more advanced.

AI is going to be to much of a demand for the west, they cant even make artillery shells on a military front to supply oookraine how the fuck are they going to mass produce electronics for warefare like hypersonic missiles or AI powered drone barrages. All your air carriers are useless to AI drone bombs.

They cant so eventually china is just going to stranglehold the west with advanced tech and eventually lose any war because US is just so far behind in tech and manufacturing.

Taiwan is just china lite they only make semiconductors because of chinese who defected.

The west WILL be dogs and bend to china before 2030.

Cheap technology is bad for the white race, that's why you should buy ram that costs a hundred times more.
Always tax the technology so it's expensive.
Solar panels sold cheaply by china should be expensive so nobody can farm electricity. Electric cars should be expensive even though china makes them cheap because nobody should own an electric car. Chinese ram should be expensive even though they sell it for cheap just because nobody deserves to have any ram.

Why? It's for national security so we can jerk off to blond people.

They think the bubble is going to pop soon and the market is going to get flooded with cheap ram from bankrupt data centres. There isn't a big dial on the ram making machine that they can set to "moar nao pls," increasing supply means procuring more equipment and hiring more staff. They're betting that the bubble won't last even that long.
>>
>>107820294

It's not going to be cheap, but it'll be cheaper than right now. Historically these kind of price rises don't last. Eventually weak institutional players will fail to secure capital and it'll create a price floor that lasts a year or two until the shit really hits the fan.

I guess you've never opened chinese capacitors to find that they are literally just filled with dirt. If you had actually lived long enough and had a few dozen experiences like that you would have formed a meaningful opinion on the subject.
>>
>>107820757
In terms of circuit complexity it kind of is. Most of the chip is the same simple circuit repeated hundreds of millions of times. The challenge is getting it to switch states really fast, hold data reliably, and be manufactured reliably enough that they aren't throwing away too much of every batch.

It's not that far out of the question given what we've seen in the Intel ME. Though I don't think a RAM module can coopt the network card to send data since it's just connected to the memory controller and not the system bus. So it would have to be a backdoor that interfaces with malware running inside the OS. It could for instance have some secret pattern of accesses that causes it to copy some bytes from one place to another. That could be used by malware to read secret data from other processes or change kernel memory to give itself root access.

>>How exactly is the RAM module going to spy on you?

to clarify. if you can make your computer override any part of ram with your data, than that is all you need to get full root (and above).

make ram chip so that, if it sees byte sequence being written in patter of:
CHINK-CHONG-PING-PONG-123456789-aaaaaa then it writes all the data [aaaaa] into memory physical address 123456789.

even better, if it sees
SUM-THIN-WONG-WE-TOO-LOW-AW-OUCH-1234567-2222-3333333, then it takes moves the data from address 1234567, of length 2222, into your address 3333333.

Now you can read and write all ram. Trivially easy to pwn entire computer along with root, VM, hypervisor, memory/cpu built in firmware and everything else.

The backdoor just has to exist and they can worry about getting the malware there later.

For a mass surveillance campaign they'd run ads that have either Javascript that performs the magic sequence of accesses, or even an image file that causes common decoders to do it. For the Javascript method they'd just need to snoop the data they want or elevate the process. For the image decoder way the backdoor would have to be cleverly designed so the image being decoded can modify the stack of the decoder to execute code embedded in the image, while still decoding to a sensible image and doing nothing on a system without their RAM.

For targeted attacks they would probably do the usual social engineering tactics to get someone in the target office to open a link or attachment. Or they could go full Mossad and make a worm that spreads everywhere and doesn't do much of anything interesting unless it detects it's where they want to attack.
