To be honest, i’d rather wait 6 months if that means the prices are not completly fucked.

I’m currently building a pc for my kid and i had to go to a DDR3 system from 2014 to have decent prices. The market is so screwed right now.

Would be ideal to release with the price they need it to be and do a price cut later but I know that’s difficult to do realistically.

We’re not getting any younger here. Prices have been creeping up for a while and the longer we wait, the idea of saving a few hundred dollars might end up being a wash with inflation and time lost. Also, there’s no guarantee prices won’t be even higher in 6 months.
