so I've priced up what i think are decent parts excluding a GPU and it's come to £1208..... that is still A Lot Of Money.... but i would get a lot of use out of it
the last one I built lasted me over 10 years (admittedly with most of the parts except the CPU and MB being swapped out at some point)
@lion The way things have slowed down you might get 20 years out of the new one
@lion it'll be so cheap then though
with the price of ram inflating I'm wondering if I should just buy some now in case it goes up even more.... I guess it's not coming down until the AI bubble pops
