Dude 2 years ago I built my first PC in a minute and last year built one for wifey (was running a rx580, ddr3 ram and fx6300 that I was milking as long as I could, built my rig and wife used that one till she had me build a better one on ddr4 ram ryzen 5 and pcie 4.0 mobo etc) and didn’t think it was a great time to build because of prices being all over but now I’m just glad I didn’t wait any longer!
I upgraded from an fx6300 to a Ryzen R5 1600 when they launched, and that was mind blowing. I can’t imagine what going from an fx6300 to an R5 in 2025 would feel like. That processor has been released 13 years before you upgrade, that’s impressive.
