If you happen to be looking for DDR5 RAM Modules today (2 x 16GBytes 6000 M/T) then the lowest price in the UK so far is from Silicon Power directly from their site for £ 348.87 with coupon code: https://siliconpoweruk.com/products/silicon-power-zenith-gaming-ddr5-6000mhz-pc5-48000-32gb16gbx2-dual-pack-1-35v-desktop-unbuffered-dimm-black Prices for RAM are still going up and don't look likely to fall any time soon 🙁 #RAMpocalypse #PCBuilding #PCAssembly #DDR5

Building a PC turns a generic box of plastic and metal into your machine. But do you actually know what those components are doing under the hood? 🛠️💻 I wrote a simplified, beginner-friendly guide covering: • The core hardware (CPU, GPU, RAM, etc.) • Crucial compatibility traps to avoid • A teaser on why #Cybersecurity experts need to look closely at hardware-level threats right out of the box.

I noticed the motherboard is flexing a little, enough that the IO shield is partially misaligned I didn't check before installing the board, maybe it's just pressure from the CPU cooler, and was there before? Or maybe the ABS part that the board is mounted to shrank a little, enough to flex the board. Seemed okay during installation though, I don't recall having to force it I don't have enough yellow ABS left to try and reprint it, and I don't really want to rebuild... someone tell me this is fine and won't break the board please 🥲 #3dprinting #pcbuilding
