abufrejoval Good thing DRAM is either soldered or DIMMs are firmly clipped in: no amount of hoovering ever removed any RAM I bought :LOL: But gently cleaning your system to protect it from dying may be far more important now, since it's so difficult to replace. Perhaps you should combine it with patch days, backup-1, clean/hoover, patch, backup-2 (without deleting backup-2, obviously). Reply
bigdragon I would upgrade from a 5900X to a 9900X3D if the DRAM crisis wasn't a thing. I've been seeing deals show up for the CPU, but the RAM I'd need costs more than the CPU and motherboard combined. I'm going to sit on the sidelines until the industry gets its house in order and the scalpers get burned. Reply
vanadiel007 Scalpers never get really burned. We have seen this in the past. The industry does not really want to address the scalper issue, because to them money is money. Reply
80251 I remember the cryptocurrency driven GPU crisis around the time of ampere featured the same kind of shenanigans and is the whole reason I had to wait until Ada to upgrade my 1080ti. It would be nice to hear some good news once in a while… Reply
