    A New Lawsuit Claims the Memory Crisis Was Manufactured on Purpose

    > Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron, which together control about 89% of the global DRAM market, are facing a class action lawsuit accusing them of coordinating production cuts and exiting older memory standards to artificially drive up prices during the ongoing memory crisis.

  6. Mastadonners who do #pcbuilding , I'm installing an intel LGA1700 into a new board and it's incredibly stiff and needs an awful lot of force, is this normal?

  11. Ein Freund möchte sich einen #Gaming PC bauen und hat mich gefragt. Ich kaufe aber seit Jahren einfach Notebooks.

    Kennst sich hier jemand aus und kann Tipps und Ideen geben, wie und wo man sich gut informieren kann?

    Die ursprüngliche Aussage war: "Wie viele Scheine müsste ich für einen ordentlichen Pc hinlegen der so für die nächsten 5 Jahre alles abspielt was ich möchte?"

  21. It seems for the second time, I have bought PC components at the right time. End of 2016, I happened to be ahead of the GPU price increases because of bitcoin mining in 2017-2018. End of 2023, I was ahead of the RAM price increases because of AI data centers today, end of 2025.

    This is pure luck.

  26. So on the weekend we did some upgrades. My oldest kid was swapping out CPU, so I realized... spare cpu, spare SSD, spare GPU, and I've got crappy old RAM in my box. Upgrade RAM on my machine and I just need mobo, psu, and case for a new PC for my middle kid. #BuildaPC ...

  31. Okay, #BuildaPC BSky, just upgraded CPU in my teenaged son's computer... And the old cpu came out with the cooler *very* firmly attached. I'm planning to use the old cpu to build a new PC for my younger kids. Do I need to pull off the cooler or is it okay to install them together as one unit?

  32. New battle station is together. There's a vertical RGB strip next to the side intake fans that isn't lit up, and I've got an adapter coming tomorrow that will let me sync the GPU RGB with all the rest of it, so hopefully I can fix the strip while installing the adapter.

    Pretty pleased with the build though. It's running much cooler and quieter than my AM4 build was. I still need to do some BIOS tweaks, run benchmarks, memtest86, etc.

    Storage out the ass on this. Plan is to have two drives for each OS and dual-boot Windows 11 and CachyOS.

  36. hey hardware advice fedi,
    so I've recently got a pci e card for more usb ports
    but apparently I ordered a different thing than I thought
    bc it's for a pci e x1 slot

    but my CPU supports only Up to 1x16+4, 2x8+4 pci configurations
    (if I didn't mess up, my nvme ssd is sata, not pci e. so only pci e in use is my gpu so far)

    what do you think?

  41. After much hardship, I have finally finished building my PC. It's not a high-end PC but it's way better than what I had before. I'm currently using Bazzite so it's also my first non-Windows computer as well.

  46. My struggles with building a PC continue. I've managed to wrestle the motherboard out of the old case and into the new case but I'm already done for the day. I'm pretty sure this is also going to be my past PC build.

    I don't know how much pre-built companies charge but it's definitely worth it to avoid the hassle and struggle of doing it yourself.

  51. My first attempt at building my computer failed when I discovered that my GPU was just a slight bit too large for my case. My SteamDeck will have to keep moonlighting as my desktop for a bit longer while I hunt down a larger case.
