If you didn't upgrade in the last 2 months it's over for you. You have fumbled the generational ball. AI will make all PC components unaffordable within 6 months.
And I feel fine. Enjoy you ray tracing and ue stutter
>>726000264crypto already did that and they never recovered
i have rtx 4090 and 8400 MHZ ram 14900kim good bro
>>726000264Who cares?
>RAM will triple>GPUs will double>SSDs will triple
>>726000264Until the AI bubble pops.
>>726000264DDR3 works just fine for me still
Just checked and nvme ssd prices are the same per TB as they were when I built my current computer... in 2018.
Just nabbed a 32gb at 107 from another countryWoooooooooooooooh!
>>726000264I upgraded my computer when the 5080/90 dropped at the beginning of the year, hopefully by the time I want to upgrade again the prices and availability will have settled to normal (but I'm not holding my breath thanks to price memory).
>>726000264Productivity increases from AI will cancel this out through cheaper manufacturing in the long run, as well as increased consumer wages. You just need to be patient.
>>726000264don't careDDR4 is fine
>>726003446>productivity gains from AI>increased consumer wagesWho's gonna tell her?
>>726003446 >AI will cancel this out through cheaper manufacturing in the long run, as well as increased consumer wagesCompanies don't want their products cheaper nor will they increase wages or salaries.
>tfw bought a 96gb kit in august
>>726000264>within 6 monthsJust in time for the gabecube release!
>>726006725AI will be accessible to any company not retarded enough to ignore it, so the competitive advantage will be shared by all. Since the playing field will be evened, lower prices are unavoidable. Even monopolies like Nvidia aren't safe over the long term.
>>726000264Every single PC "generation" there's a random part that triples in price. And then you're wondering why normies just buy a fucking PS5 and deal with the paid online.
>>726000264I have 32gb ddr4 I should be fine. Will probably skip am 5 platform entirely.
>>726000264you don't think anyone wants to ramp up production to sell into that curve and get a bite of the pie? there are already new manufacturing lines under construction for memory chips
>>726000264>AI will make all PC components unaffordable within 6 months.
>>726000440>GPUs will doubleI dont see that
Thankfully I bought 8x96GB sticks to run deepseek half a year ago
>>726003446I recently saw a job ad for a builder paying $180k/year and realised I'm in the wrong fucking industry.
AI is completely worthless besides making porn, I have no idea how this shit is making so much money. You would think getting info from those AI chat bots would be good, but considering it confidently says wrong information instead of "I don't know" makes it completely useless. You have to fact check every single thing it says so you may as well just not even use it.
>>726009293AI can do literally every office job
>>726009293consumers of AI (LLMs and other transformers based models) that are making the most money are not using them in the chatbot, question and answer way
I don't even have a computerI've wanted one my whole life but I'm so OCD I can't ever decide on components and commit to it so I just browse the internet exclusively on phones my dad gave me for Christmas because I've never bought my own phone either I did buy a steam deck but that's all I haveI am extremely depressed and poor
>>726000264Yes, yes, yes, it won't affect consoles. *prices go up*

Damn, you weren't kidding. I upgraded to 32GB in January, but only did DDR4. It's now over 3x the price I paid less than a year ago.
>>726003446wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
>>726009368>>726009398I watched someone try to use it to build a PC and it couldn't even do that. It just provides completely wrong information and gaslights you when you tell it you can't find settings/wires/etc. that you clearly don't have access to. The AI shit that shows up on the Google searches is also just completely wrong like 50% of the time. It's worthless and it will never be good until it can literally tell you "I don't know."
>>72600026432gb was a meme they said
>buy 2 sticks of ram>go bankrupt
You voted for this.
All this effort is to replace your salary with AI. No, you won't get UBI, you will just be culled.
>>726009690I can just imagine the guy not providing any context in his prompts.No mobo models, images or anything.
>>726000264There are 0 games worth upgrading for. Go ahead, name 5
>>726000264I love capitalism
>>726010462Bro, it's AI. If it needs to know that it should ask. Not provide completely wrong information. If you have to already know everything already before you start it's fucking USELESS compared to just Googling shit.
>>726010564You know what? You're right, there is nothing worth upgrading for and poorfags don't event want to own a gaming PC anymore since they can just play most new games with cloud subscription servicesvidya is dead
