Can they return to prepandemic price?

[–] Dudewitbow@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 years ago (2 children)

depends on how youre defining price. memory/storage is at its lowest point atm. CPUs are extremely competitive and AMD still ridiculously supports the AM4 platform. Monitor specs/price point are constantly dropping.

the only rhing that hasnt depreciated much is high end Nvidia gpus, because of AI reasons.

Now that EVGA does not product Nvidia cards anymore I don't find much reason to purchase Nvidia over Amd now.

No reason to do that, as long as stuff goes over the table it will stay that way

But it’s called a desktop!

[–] vext01@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

That's very true.

I put mine on the desk for better Wi-Fi signal and so my cats would stop messing with the cables. I have a huge desk though.

Should you not have PC on your desk? Where should you put your PC? Genuine question.

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 3 points 2 years ago

Your PC is a bit less dusty on your desk. If it's extremely heavy (eg, custom watercooling), you might want to put it on the floor. My standing desk started sagging ominously under the load.

Mine's on the floor under the desk.

[–] Emi@ani.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But that way you get more dust inside your pc

[–] vext01@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 years ago

It can take it.

Hi floor twin!

Okay, but what's wrong with putting it on the desk?

[–] vext01@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

Clutters up the desk!
