Is there still time to get a decent gaming PC for the next 3+ years?
No
>16GB RAM>5060 8GBJesus fuck what part of this is worth $1200
you can buy mid and swap later. thats the whole point of pc building, you can upgrade.last gen used system is still good and you can get it for good price.
>>729119773You can get a Ryzen 8700F with 32gb of DDR5 and an 8gb RTX 5060ti for $900 at walmart right this second
Just finance it if you're poor. Why save for months when you can just spend how much you would have saved each month?
>>729119773>16gb ram>8gb vramngmi
>>729119904The combined package, plus 50% markup for service fees.
>>729119773>16gb ram>8gb vram
>>729119773Yes, it will only get worse
Not to brag or anything, heh... but... I have 32GB of RAM.
>waitfags literally getting BTFO this timeDid you really need that vacation just to take photos and eat food?
>>729120306Jonah, that never happened
>>729120306What kind of 32GB RAM
>>729120306The only thing you've taken 32 gigabytes of is HAM jonah.
>>729121054Deditated
>>729121183thats a WAM spec not RAM, retard
why do you need a gaming pc when there are no good games? my 20 year old computer runs cs 1.6 fine still
>>729121378to play the players' voice
>>729121452i play this on my ipad
>>729119773Probably closer to $1800 after fiddling around with the motherboard and RAM kit that's actually in stock now. Maybe shave off a few bucks for a 650W PSU, but it's basically nothing.
>>729121689its much better on pc. the graphics are like real life.
>>729119773That prebuilt would have only cost $700-800 just a few months ago
>xir did not buyed alreadyBuddy, how are you supposed to wait out the bubble?
>>729120047>yes goy pay the interest, good goy
>>729119904On Pcpart picker, putting the same CPU and GPU, getting the cheapest non-chinese part for the 16 gb of ram and 1 tb SSD, with a cheap compatible motherboard. I think OP is getting a good deal
>>729122474>doesn't have access to 0% financingSkill issue
>>729121054Ddr4
>>729119773It was already too late five years ago. If you're smart you'll be picking parts from older generations that have the best track records, instead of purely for benchmarks but the trend for the last decade and a half has been the price of discontinued models going up even more than new stuff. Its the automotive industry all over again but gayer and more retarded.
>>729122538aight
>>729119773>Intel>5060 (8GB)>16 RAM (4800 MHz not even 6k)N O
>>729122475The PhanteksExterior like fish eggsThe interior like suicide-wrist red
>>729119773My 4060 laptop for 650€ was a great black Friday deal!
>>729123193>770 burgersThey aren't hard to find for that price but I guess it depends on how much ram and storage you got
this was the one
>>729123193Which gaming laptop did you buy?
>>729120465ThisHere's what really happened
>>729123830>Still smiling even as she goes downSHE CAN'T HELP IT
>>729123193laptops are unironically a good value right now if you need that. you're still buying a>gaming laptopbut it's the smaller markup in cost vs performance I can remember
>>729122475>half the cost is just ramholy shit kek
>>729124268waitfags will tell you this is okay
That build is worth it for the ram alone.
>>729119773Terribe time to buy anything on AM5. Stay away. The industy is pretty fucked right now. AMD release some APU with a GPU in it that only runs 60 watts but due to it having shared memory everone unknowly got this potato chip apu. it's 120 watts totaly with half goin gto the cpu and the other half going to the gpu. It's a laptop with no screen and a shitload of memory. This market is a massive scam right now. Reminds me of the bitcoin mining days.
>>729125354It sounds like you're having a stroke and have no idea what the fuck you're saying here, kid
>>729126010strix halo is shit
>>729123516Not bad if you get your own motherboard
>>729128657Strix Halo has literally nothing to do with socket AM5, stroke victim.
>>729129281anon will never mod a mobo to use differnt ram.
>>729129670why not?
>>729119937Don't listen to this guy. You can't upgrade your pc, if you ever take it apart all the dogshit plastic connectors they use to hold together the hundreds of dollars worth of components will fail because they're made of plastic and fucking paper thin then you have to get a new CPU cooler but it's gonna have the same dogshit plastic clips on it so better hope your thermal paste lasts forever or get ready to buy a new cooler + whatever parts you destroyed with static electricity in the process of trying to make those plastic clips go in to the fucking motherboard. Holy shit whoever designed those needs to die a painful, slow death.
>>729129670More schizo rambling. Try harder.
what ifwe taketwo mobasthat are completely differentamd just smashed them togetherliterally
>>729125279Don't just repeat shit you read here, retard.
>>729129782did you study how to code a driver so a bus an direct power between the ram and processing cores? If you did then maybe you will and possibly design hardware but if you didn't... then you won't. typical ddr 5 ram is slower then a.i. ddr 5 though.
>>729129951Obvious bait but I rubbed by socks on the carpet and touched just about everything inside of a PC I didn't really care about one time just to see what would happen. Everything from the CPU, to the vrms, to the case/fan headers, to the GPU, and the thing fired right up. The anti-static stuff is a meme. It's not that I think it's impossible that it could fuck something up, but I couldn't get it to happen on purpose.
>>729129979processing cores, ram and a bus to control where power goes. My god who could ever understand how to make a mobo that has shared memory for ANY graphics card. This industry is a joke and nobody is sane anymore.
>>729130226What in the literal fuck do you think you're trying to say, kid? There is no such thing as AI DDR5.
>two years agoremember what they took from you
>>729119904The ram alone is $1000 usd
