    One of the rare times a quality prebuilt can make more sense than building your own PC. I was able to snag a PowerSpec (9800x3d, RTX 5080, 32gb RAM, 2TB SSD) from Micro Center for $2200 at the height of RAMageddon. The 5080 alone was selling for $1500 at the time. <br><br>It’s rough out there, but there are deals to be found if you’re patient but persistent.

    AMD GPUs are soo good on Linux. Their drivers work so well. Nvidia Linux support is messy.
