Same … I hadn’t upgraded since 2012, and had some extra cash, so rebuilt in August. Feeling pretty lucky to have done it then, and really glad I went ahead and put 64GB RAM in it.
Minus the case and video card, I have an entire 3rd gen i7 machine sitting in a box that would actually make a pretty good machine for a lot of different uses.
I can’t believe how lucky I was to upgrade my desktop before the surge. This is an outrage!

I did my desktop but skipped my server.
Even decade+ old used surplus server DDR4 didn’t escape the apocalypse.
I upgraded January last year. My only regret now is not getting 64GB of ram
I did as well which is a polite way of saying I blew all my RAM savings on the how overpriced GPUs were at the time
Same. Feel like I could sell my rig for more than it cost me a 18 months ago.
