Been running an MSI motherboard, gpu, WD raptor, and haswell cpu since 2015-ish. My only regret is that I got the “K” version of the processor for overclocking, which lacks the VT-d extensions needed for virtualization goodies like gpu passthrough.
Still good enough. DDR4+ is diminishing returns, except maybe for highend gamers. But even there, i’m plannning my next TV PC console for 10 years time, with focus on efficient components and upgradeability.
The way things are going we’re going to need ddr3 mobos.

I still got mine with 32GB of ram. I will wait for it to appreciate in value and sell it to buy a house
So RAM is the name of the new crypto coin? 😅

Except nobody manufactures it anymore.
Maybe it’s not the best moment to tell you guys that today I found an old PC with 4x4GB ddr3 on the side of the road…
I just bought 16Gb of DDR3L laptop memory for a low-power NAS I’m building, and even that cost almost 40 bucks.
