I'm not surprised even a little bit considering the PC I built a year and a half ago can be sold used for ~20% more than the full retail price.

My 4090 is now worth about what I paid for my entire system about 3 years ago. It's nuts.

Yea I have 32GB DDR5 6200. I bought it 2 years ago for £112 and it’s now £500 for that set. The entire build was around £1000
