u should be rich
64gb ddr5
nobody shouldn't knows, where u life

[tawdry cipher]

Bought it before the ram pricing went berserk was part of my 7800x3d home theater build and now that pc has 32 gb

I paid like 230 for that kit back then

[half wyvern]

This is fire

[polar shale]

would be more fire, if it's would be 5090

i mean real fire 🔥

but pc would be burn

[half wyvern]

5090 cost to much I paid 3400 for mine and I don’t even push it to its fullest potential

[polar shale]

just readed, they burning for 12vhpwr

[tepid shale]

boys he has ram. GET HIM!!!

[tawdry cipher]

i still have another 3 kits

[polar shale]

i hope, u have a gun

[tawdry cipher]

Just a few lol

[polar shale]

that's how u meet ur neighbours or other people, when someone visit ur home

[tawdry cipher]

Just for context I have 3 safes lol

[polar shale]

so, u hide ur ram kits there

[tepid shale]

prepare to defend. me and my minions will raid your home for your ram /s

[polar shale]

don't forget about ssd too

[tepid shale]

nah just ram

[tawdry cipher]

My 990 evos will be safe

[tepid shale]

before the ram shortage. my 990 pro 2tb new only costed me $70

[polar shale]

rampocalypse changed ssd prices too

[tepid shale]

I know ssd and gpus also. but ram is gold ; )

[polar shale]

then ssd it's silver

[tepid shale]

the joke is we raid their home just for their computer ram

[polar shale]

and ssd

[tepid shale]

I dont want to rob a man's stash of storage filled with dolphan porn

[polar shale]

how do yk, what's he saved on his storage?

[tepid shale]

don't ask

[peak bridge]

whic mobo is that?

[tawdry cipher]

Gigabyte aorus x870e pro ice

[peak bridge]

nice mobo

feel like u spent a lot on the mobo lol

but idrk tbf

mobos got cheaper for intel at least, (z890)

z790 used parts have increased in price tho

[tepid shale]

$300 for the pro ice. doesn't seem that bad

I start questioning when people start paying $600+ lol but that's for people who pairs a $600 mobo with like a 5070ti or weaker

[peak bridge]

pretty steep

[peak bridge]

i bought a 125$ mobo and paired it with a 4090

and 14900k

so the hottest PC u could have back in the day (barring using 14900KS)

i know someone who got 14900ks and a 4090.. made no sense to me

dude said he barely upgrades and is the first time he is making a big purchase.. but then.. he should just upgrade more frequently? 🤣

[peak bridge]

tbf the mobo was 240$ at retail ig.. z790 auros elite x wifi7

[tepid shale]

$200-300 is normal for am5 mobos

a few b650 can be found at $150

[peak bridge]

yeah but 300$ seems a bit higher end

[tepid shale]

any cheaper then is usually crap

[peak bridge]

but then again people here spend a lot on aesthetics so idrk

[tepid shale]

hes paying the white tax

[peak bridge]

u are saying this to someone who has a 14900k 💀

its power req is like the highest. and ram speeds are higher too

[tepid shale]

intel different

[peak bridge]

not just that. its also the pro version

[peak bridge]

wdym different lol

if anything u can even more so not cheap out on mobo for 14900k

[tepid shale]

oh nvm idk what I was saying by different

[peak bridge]

cuz the thing gouges up power

[tepid shale]

but you wont find much good $130 am5 mobos

day of $100 mobos are kinda gone

[peak bridge]

yeah unfortunately..

idk what happened..

kinda crazy how inflation is considered only 2-5% but everything i know and love and need has been increasing in price at a quite higher rate

[tepid shale]

only going to get worse with more other chip shortage coming soon where we may see all parts raise in price

[peak bridge]

healthcare, housing, education, electronics

[peak bridge]

afaik it shouldnt affect mobos as much but yeah u never know

[tepid shale]

yeah everything seems like it doubled

[peak bridge]

it kinda does make sense to perhaps spend more on mobo + cpu rn

when those are the only half sensibly priced things

[tepid shale]

my mobo is just $200 but I didn't go for looks. I just have a Asus Tuf Gaming B650 Plus Wifi

[peak bridge]

but yeah i think z790 auros pro is of similar price (300$ or so), i just never bought it tho cuz elite has pretty much everything u would need

afaik the ram overclocking isnt even better on the pro

[tepid shale]

but plenty for a 9800x3d

[peak bridge]

yeah

[tepid shale]

AMD doesn't ram overclock well anyways

[peak bridge]

but i dont think its just looks

[peak bridge]

true

[tepid shale]

intel can push 7200mhz, AMD’S most safe is 6000mhz

[peak bridge]

also why i said u can kinda cheap out on amd more than u can cheap out on intel 14th gen

intel requires higher power delivery and better memory overclocking

ironically the best intel mobos were super pricy itx ones

or some uber expenive ROG ones that had only 2 ram slots

[tepid shale]

damn I really want to try an itx build lol

[peak bridge]

best 4 dimmer was asrock pg nova afaik.. but auros elite and auros pro were right behind. i think there was/is no difference in mem OC for auros pro and auros elite..

[peak bridge]

bro i got my coolmon argb cables

[peak bridge]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/vHNscf/asrock-b850-steel-legend-wifi-atx-am5-motherboard-b850-steel-legend-wifi u have this ig @tepid shale

[peak bridge]

@tepid shale from what i researched that steel legend is very good for am5

so 200-300$ really aint normal

apparently x870 is lowkey useless cuz all it adds is a usb 4 port which most devices dont even support, and for workstation builds it even saps pcie lanes from ur pcie slots

[tepid shale]

ah

[peak bridge]

thats the board i was recommended will be using for a build with a 5090 or two

so for sure u dont need 200-300$ for ur PC. i think i may get something slightly better tho but maybe still b850 if the usb 4 does infact sap pcie lanes and doesnt have some dynamic routing/allocation

[tepid shale]

"or two". they be flexing their wealth spending 2 $4000 5090

[peak bridge]

yeah ig

[tepid shale]

5090 alone costed more than my whole pc and I have a 5080
