that's the solution, but you know the consumers are not principled to execute it.
There's also those of us whose builds date back to 2020. Holding out another 5-10 years is a bit of an ask.
count me in that group. I love my ddr4 system. upgraded the gpu and cpu in the past year, I hope I can plan with it for the long term.
I upgraded my CPU this year and I actually still haven't reached the top of the line yet (currently 8 cores, but I could go 5950x for 16). But I wanted to buy more RAM last year and didn't, so that's fun.
Yes, that's of course fair. Even if it's not perfect compliance, though, the more people hold out, the faster and lower prices drop, so there's still value in it.
But short of regulation, is there anything else within our power to do?
