I’m relatively new to the PC world. My previous build of mid-2023 was actually the first one I've ever built; after switching from an Xbox Series S. I upgraded about a year ago, moving from a Ryzen 5 3600 paired with an RTX 2080 to an i5-12600K and an RTX 3080. I kept my 16GB of DDR4 because I didn't feel like I needed, or need, any more than that amount and, as usual, bought everything used online. Seeing the current prices, I’m so glad I made the jump when I did!
