• 1TB OLED $649 -> $949
• 512GB OLED $549 -> $789
Yowzers, I got the LCD one for $400 plus a little extra to swap in a bigger SSD. $1k for Zen 2 is tough to swallow…

My computer is 7 years old and I would still call it newish lol. To build a comparable one now would cost more than it did at the time.
It’s pretty hard to find second hand PCs that are in working order + not cockroach infested biohazards. There’s a market for ex corporate laptops but most have awful thermal characteristics and integrated GPUs and wouldn’t be suitable for much gaming beyond dwarf fortress/true roguelikes/emulation up to like the DS probably skipping some PS2 games.
Maybe in more populous places there are better used markets. People atm are trying to sell 5 year old hardware more than it was at the time.
Yeah I’m actually about to sell my desktop just because I barely use it and need the money and its probably worth more than it was when I bought it now. I have a laptop (a 2nd hand corpo fleet one i got for cheap funnily enough) and will just use that. Not a big gamer anymore. Maybe play a game once a month tops.
