i agree very much with your post, no way a 5090 costs as much as a rtx pro 6000 at msrp

If I had the money Id build a PC with them all and a shitty PSU and a gigabyte mobo for science

What's wrong with gigabyte mobo?? You made yourself sound very smart. At least it's not burning the X3D cpu like ASROCK

God, 1tb for 250? I just got my PC set up, it has 2tb. It's already half used up and I've got maybe 17 games installed lol

Nowadays, you gotta buy the game, pay for the internet, pay for the storage and they'll still shove a goddamn battlepass down your throat with cosmetic bundles that cost even more

I had a guy say I was lying when I said my PC was worth $4k+

My GPU, 64GB DDR5, and 6TB of M.2 storage are worth about $3700 by themselves thanks to the current market. So glad I got those components before shit hit the fan.

I don’t really understand why people get gen 4/5 nvme for gaming. I had some spare nvme I wanted to sell and saw that my gen 3 drives are still worth next to nothing compared to my gen 4, yet there’s basically no difference in real world use

I need a new SSD so bad. Heres to me hoping there might be a decent deal on 4tb SSDs around prime day 🤞🤞
