Shout out to the PC components that haven't gotten more expensive (lemmy.today)

Basically just the CPU fan, case, and PSU (if you're lucky). If someone can figure out how to get Doom running on just those 3 things, young people will be able to ascend.

Also peripherals like DACs, monitors and such.

Thank God the prices of dacs and other audio gear hasn't gone crazy... Yes they're already expensive a lot of the time, but I couldn't bear to pay a 200% premium when upgrading audio gear

Yeah. Honestly the margins on some of that stuff is already kind of crazy.
