Makes sense. CPU/Mobo/RAM typically go together in a rebuild. Storage, case, PSU, perepherals, GPU can often carry over between builds as they're all pretty backwards compatible.
Yeah. This makes pretty good sense. Make some ram and SSDs - lowee the price - and I'm sure Motherboard sales will go up.
It's funny how people don't want to buy motherboards without anything else
Yeah but it's like the gearbox. While everything's pulled apart, you may as well swap out the clutch, bearing, and flywheel too because they'll need replacing again first. Especially if better versions of them are now supported.
