@otherdog Unfortunately ridiculous seems like the new norm.

I was really hoping with Intel entering the GPU Market that there would be more competition and pricing adjustments, but that doesn't seem to be happening.

Having said that, if you can wait, not purchase right away, and if everyone does that, then the market will adjust down, because at some point they need to actually sell the hardware.

Intel wechselt schon wieder den Sockel - nach nur einer CPU-Generation

Mit Nova Lake führt der Chip-Hersteller abermals einen neuen Sockel ein. Besitzer aktueller LGA-1851-Mainboards müssen sich für ein Prozessor-Upgrade also gleich ein ganz neues Mainboard zulegen. Das dürfte viele Nutzer verärgern.

Rumor: Intel next-gen CPU series "Nova Lake-S" to require new LGA-1954 socket

VideoCardz News: If this rumor is true, it's really bad news for users of the LGA-1851 platform. Intel launched its 800-series motherboards only in Q3 2024, and it seems that they may support only one generation of processors. Reviewers asked Intel multiple times whether the platform would...
