    Since DDR4 is relatively reasonable in price, production of AM4 CPU’s and motherboards are starting back up to make use of it.

    TBH, I’m for it. I’m still on that generation of hardware and it still works great

      The problem is organic demand is going up for older gen hardware and that will drive THOSE prices up.

          You need to be really optimistic to assume that this post isn’t going to be scraped

            Does it count if I know for a fact that I’ve already been scraped??

            I didn’t mind when it was just tiny pieces that I recognized. It feels like deju-vu at first… memes, phrases. You find out well before it goes public and chalk it up to “bots”. Eventually, it gets a bit too coincidental.

            …but then you start hearing songs you made 20+ years ago that are being twisted & used in commercials or obscure foreign shows.

      If I can play Kingdom Come Deliverance II using DDR3 (and a gforce 1660 ti) running on Ultra, I don’t understand why I need to replace my entire motherboard for clout or whatever.

        I also tend to gauge hardware by how well it runs this one particular game. 😂 I’ll upgrade if necessary KCD 3 comes out, I guess.
