The months roll by slow, without relief. The price of hardware beggars belief. The weather is bleak, the thoughts are black; Ah! When will the old days come back? How have you been, dear reader? Have you needed to purchase a non-GPU, non-RAM, and non-SSD piece of hardware recently? That is good, for the prices […]

Starting late last year, and accelerating greatly this year, the RAMpocalypse has been unrelenting in its pressure on RAM. Not only are prices for RAM up by 500% (yes, five hundred, no typo), but all RAM capacity has been sold for all of 2026 AND 2027! Ah, the ceaseless joy of waking up to this […]

In one form or another, the Logical Increments PC Buying Guide has existed for approximately 17 years now, which is quite a span.

CPUs are a duopoly. While some alternatives to AMD and Intel technically exist, their market share is so tiny that they do not appear on some statistics tracking pages. It is for this reason that we rarely talk about only Intel or only AMD. We instead compare them to one another, as they are both […]
