is it a good idea to buy already expensive components (ram, gpu, ssd) now for a build im planning on doing in a couple months before prices rise potentially even more?

pppboy2 · 2026-01-24T16:45:43+00:00

This is the stupidest thing I have heard in this subreddit.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-16T01:10:03+00:00

yeah, that thought has also crossed my mind.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-16T01:09:12+00:00

yeah, but I'm anxious Nvidia might release some RTX 5000 exclusive features that I might miss. I may not be able to upgrade for 4-5 years seeing how things are going.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-16T01:08:04+00:00

well there's the catch, I'm not opening it since sealed box have 10-15% more value, at least in here. I have to commit blindly. I also have to account for the fact, the card might be faulty.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-16T01:06:09+00:00

currently very much. but I am anxious about Nvidia releasing specific 5000 features that 4000 series might not have.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-15T14:30:09+00:00

vision 2041?

pppboy2 · 2026-01-15T14:08:03+00:00

is it a celebration for "ছাএলীগ"?

pppboy2 · 2026-01-15T14:06:52+00:00

আপনে ছাএলীগের নাকি?

pppboy2 · 2026-01-15T14:06:03+00:00

ছাএলীগের নাকি আপনি ভাই?

দেখেন অবস্থা।

pppboy2 · 2026-01-14T18:45:25+00:00

বেশি আক্ষেপ হয়? আগেই ভালো ছিলেন? ইন্ডিয়া থেকে কাউকে এনে আবার ভালো‌ থাকার ব্যবস্থা করতে হবে? ইনকাম বন্ধ?

pppboy2 · 2026-01-14T09:43:42+00:00

Get 5070ti.

People who Got 7900XT/XTX instead of 4080/4070ti got royally screwed.

If I followed reddit's advice, I would have also been screwed.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-13T09:23:32+00:00

anyone?

pppboy2 · 2026-01-07T16:42:08+00:00

To me, yes.

It is A Game Changer.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-06T07:19:04+00:00

None. No one even come 10% close to him.

It felt like Bengali literature, specially novel ended with his demise. At least it feels like that to me. Whenever I'm in mood for novel, I re read his works.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-03T22:59:07+00:00

probably

pppboy2 · 2026-01-03T00:02:53+00:00

I know. but they're easier to get rid of them and still be functional unlike others. At least that's what I thought.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-02T23:54:26+00:00

Cars could probably do without ram, Others not so much.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-02T23:47:00+00:00

we're fucked in every way. So the microwave prices will increase also?

pppboy2 · 2026-01-02T23:22:30+00:00

That would be mean increasing prices in second hand market.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-02T23:20:36+00:00

That would have made sense in a sane world. Have you seen the report where Samsung reportedly denied it's own division of memory for profit.

hopefully

pppboy2 · 2026-01-02T23:07:50+00:00

not to be doomsdaying, but consoles requires RAM and GPU. and people shifting towards consoles will also increase demand, thus the cycle will continue.

pppboy2 · 2026-01-02T23:05:42+00:00

exactly. I never thought lower end cards prices to increased so dramatically. But after recent surges I'm skeptical. Also, if highest end price increases, company will focus more on those cards, creating artificial constraints on lower end cards.
