Podcast #847 – Micron Kills Off Crucial, AM5 Budget Build Sadness, Ryzen 9850X3D Leak, Plex, Shady Panda and MORE

Yes, we talked about DDR5 pricing a lot, again.  But we also talked about a very special Intel 18A customer, one billion PCs screaming out in pain (it’s a metaphor!), AMD CPU / GPU pricing trends, ASUS router vulnerabilities (again), alternatives to Windows for playing games which includes playing web based old console games.  It’s a thing.  Also, we virtually pour one out for Crucial (Micron).

We must thank our Patreon members, because without you … we would be gone. New folks and current ones that are bumping their patronage are greatly appreciated.

This show cannot go on without you – you know who you are, please consider helping our efforts. It most definitely helps keep us on the air. And helps Josh buy burgers. Thank you!
