tennis2 Might as well just cancel consumer CPUs now. RAM is so expensive nobody can afford to build a PC. We'll all be renting remote desktop from AI server farms. Reply

Stomx Big tech will spend soon trillions on AI creating hardware crisis. You pay for your hardware, fine, pay also for the price hikes for regular consumers and small businesses affected by your madness actions. Let's you take the responsibility. Where are consumers protection advocates? Consumers should just send the difference in price invoice to big tech and the manufacturers exploding from the fat to compensate for RAM, SSD and HD price hikes since some date say February-May 2025. How about this, Elon Mask? Reply

Yea, last year I was building/rebuilding some HPC systems for the simulations, got the top AMD chips which at that time were the major part of the investment and a half of that now collecting the dust because it is the RDIMMs costing 7x more which are today by far the major investment Soon we will see the ads like this: "Buy the full set of 24 64GB RDRAM modules and get your choice AMD or Intel two server chips and the dual motherboard for free" Reply

RAM prices appear to have peaked, and you can get a 16 GB DDR5 kit for around $220 new, or under $200 used. 32 GB DDR5 kits start at $330. While it's not good, and it makes DDR5-only platforms less attractive, it's also not the end of personal computing. You might be looking at 25-40% higher build cost from a year ago, on the higher end if you must have a new 16 GB GPU (9060 XT 16 GB is creeping towards $450, 5060 Ti 16GB is well over $500). If all you need is a computer capable of doing basic work, any 4-6 core DDR4 CPU from the last 10 years is fine, and you can find relevant systems in the $100-250 range. Sub-$100 used GPUs with 4-8 GB VRAM can play PS4-era games, easier-to-run/esports games, and some of the newer games. For example, here's what you could do with an RX 580 8 GB (about $70-80 on ebay). You may have to tighten your belt, but there is no reason to rent desktops in the cloud. Reply

txfeinbergs You are doing it wrong. You don't build PCs anymore. You buy them. I just bought this Alienware for $3000 less than what it would take to build the same PC. https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/cty/pdp/spd/alienware-area-51-aat2265-gaming-desktop#services-tab $4799 (that isn't even counting the $300 in Dell reward points you get) for an RTX 5090, 32GB 6400MT RAM, 1500 Watt Power Supply, a case built like a tank, 2 TB Gen 5 SSD, and a Ryzen 9950X3D. The cheapest you can even buy an RTX 5090 right now is around $3500. Reply

emike09 I'm mostly interested in how IPC has improved per-core/per-watt. Coming from the 12-core i9-10920x to the 16-core 9950x3D was a monstrous difference. Only four more cores, but saw between 40-250% increase in various benchmarks. Many RAM benchmarks excelled though depending on the workload – quad-channel needs to be available for consumers in the HEDT. Come on Intel, bring back the competition! Reply

das_stig Ryzen 10000 is now just a stupid name, I personally think they missed the boat with the naming R3-10K-xxx, R5-10K-xxx, R7-10K-xxx, R9-10K-xxx, it makes chip identification and appropriate performance, far clearer. Reply

micheal_15 The biggest improvement for Zen 6 is hopefully server-style slotting on a consumer product. Basically the OS has a core reserved entirely to itself that CANNOT be interrupted or stopped by OS Applications for any reason or used by them. So the OS will never freeze, only applications can stutter etc. This also means even an old single-core game like World of Warcraft would have better performance because the OS would be in the top-end core, whilst Wow runs by itself in Core 1 and never notices that it's not sharing core resources with the OS. Then just put a better task manager into Windows 11 that can insta-kill any process. No more rebooting because a piece of crap application decides to try to take over everything. Reply

Well, I'm reading that AMD and Intel have full order books for server CPUs. So, they're not likely to miss the sales volume on the client side much, anyhow. That said, they could certainly do a little business selling new Ryzen CPUs into existing AM5 sockets. I know most of their client sales volume normally goes into new builds, but this would at least help get Zen 6 into the hands of some developers, so we can optimize software for it (without needing to rent time on a cloud instance). Edit: I just saw a rumor that AMD won't be launching the desktop Zen 6 CPUs until 2027. So, maybe all of this is effectively moot. Reply

Key considerations

  • Investor positioning can change fast
  • Volatility remains possible near catalysts
  • Macro rates and liquidity can dominate flows
