I still got mine with 32GB of ram. I will wait for it to appreciate in value and sell it to buy a house

So RAM is the name of the new crypto coin? 😅

Just bought an asus maximus vii with 16 gig ram and core i7 490k used for 140 euro. it was top of the line in 2014, and will hopefully last the kid as first system until prices come down. but prices are ao shitty

Good choice. This is perfectly reasonable CPU

I look forward to it. Decent first system and later the joy of upgraded Hardware. Hope the kid likes it as well :)

No joke: I just built a low-end server based on DDR3. Got 32 GB for 40 EUR.

Maybe it's not the best moment to tell you guys that today I found an old PC with 4x4GB ddr3 on the side of the road...

I just bought 16Gb of DDR3L laptop memory for a low-power NAS I’m building, and even that cost almost 40 bucks.

Still good enough. DDR4+ is diminishing returns. Except maybe for highend gamers. But even there, i’m plannning my next TV PC console for 10 years time, with focus on efficiency.

Been running an MSI motherboard, gpu, WD raptor, and haswell cpu since 2015-ish. My only regret is that I got the “K” version of the processor for overclocking, which lacks the VT-d extensions needed for virtualization goodies like gpu passthrough.
