I’ve been collecting so I have some, not enough to rebuild from zero though.
If I have to I’ll downshift to DDR3-era, I still have a lot of that. It’s not ideal but it’s mostly serviceable with expectations appropriately set.
Edit: it kinda looks like you could downshift also, as long as you had a video card (and software set up right) that could understand newer video codecs.
“AI CPU”
Also I don’t like the direction Ubuntu has been going for some time now unrelated to that.
these are already added to non-cix hardware; did you pass on those as well?
Yes.
so you’re purchasing old hardware? specialized hardware?
DDR4-era is plenty good enough for anything I’ll use it for, and if not I’ll use two. 🤷
My own ddr4 era hardware died a few months ago and finding replacements have been difficult; I hope you’re better prepared to warehouse your own spares than I was
