Last post by VonDaab - February 03, 2026, 02:55:25 PMI have to admit that I do not remember you. Then again I don't have that great memory, and I was active here only 2007-2011-ish?
Still, good to see people returning to check this place out. Welcome back.

Last post by stewartsage - February 02, 2026, 11:00:05 PMThat top one is some of my favorite sketches you've ever done. Turns out the secret is just Whirlwind-sama, SAGE-chan, and PDP-1-chan being really cute. Truly blessed by the princess of electronic computers.
Those kids should probably not go with the meth bunny. Too late! Into the foil tunnel! Get in the question mark and take the fall, UNIX-sama... Also of course she couldn't pass up showing how much more authority she has in that outfit.

Last post by VonDaab - January 27, 2026, 11:02:48 AMGrabbed 2x16gb sticks of DDR5 when I collected the parts for this build back in May, at normal price. DDR4 is still fairly valid RAM even today, so I've been looking around to hoard some of that and have a AM4 socket based mini PC build coming up someday later. So far have 2x8Gb set of DDR4, but the local 2nd hand marketplace here has bunch more of it, even if bit on the pricey side, like, 80-ish euros for a 2x8gb set.
The 3-fan Arc B580 I got in December for 280euros when GPU prices were at their record low. Arc cards aren't in super high demand so their prices haven't gone up terribly lot, just seems like supply is more of the question.
Just strange that people aren't buying the B580. It's basically a RTX4060 power card, but with 12Gb of VRAM.
When I saw the RAM prices spike, I anticipated a spike in SSD prices as well, so managed to grab a 2Tb stick of M.2 NVME, just couple days before it went up by 30%. It's almost double now.
Fortunately PC case parts, motherboards and CPUs are still normal priced, even if there are rumors of CPU prices going up and generally energy prices rising causing all component prices going up with it.
Along with couple more fans for my build, I need to get a case fan power hub. Fans came with a hub for the RGB, but not for the power, so I had to scavenge the hub off my old case and it's sub-optimal for the task because I might need to divide the fans between as many motherboard power headers as possible as right now too many of them are running at same exact speed and its generating resonance, a low wavy hum.

Did you manage to snag your GPU & RAM before prices went crazy?
