First, lemme mention my specialty is budget builds. I generally try to spend as little as possible for the best quality product. Usually i'm looking at early current gen or late last gen equipment, which i feel is still within the "future proof" pool. imo, stick another 8GB of RAM in it. Your computer and games will love you.

And it's kind of a "duh" when you hear it but it's because of the cryptocurrency mining. A buddy of mine has 8 RX580 graphic graphics cards strickly for Ethereum. And even still, most online retailers are limiting "1 per customer" in addition to being sold out of every "reasonably" priced GPU's. Maybe this thread will help recommend EU O…
