I built a budget pc 2 months ago. Went for a smaller motherboard and case. Saved me money and I did not need the extra slot.

Prices are too high. This computer is going to last quite some time. If it doesn’t, I’m not buying another one until I have the budget again.

I feel like I, as a guy who just wants to game a bit am no longer the main customer for suppliers. Which is fine, but I’ll find something else to do if I can no longer game and when the AI bubble goes to crap don’t expect me to suddenly be interested again…
