European here. I’m pretty content with my setup (Ryzen5 3600XT, 16GB RAM, GTX 1060… I play in 1080p) for the games I’m playing at the moment, and I don’t plan on playing many AAAA games in the future. BUT. With the recent tariffs flying around, China denying rare earths, etc etc I fear we might see an increase in hardware prices like we had with covid, so I was thinking on upgrading at least CPU+VGA; more than FOMO let’s say is Fear Of Being Overpriced. What do you think, should I upgrade now that things looks a little more relaxed? Will the whole mess involve only the USA or everyone cause globalization?

    Get it in before tariffs start to really kick in. I just did it, I’m pretty sure in 6 months it’s going to be so much more expensive.

    Edit: if you’re in the u.s.a.

        Glazed by the first sentence, my bad. It wasn’t in the title. If you’re going to be a dick get it right at least.
