    I’m so really glad I upgraded my computer mostly in late '24. A lot of things got more expensive, like:

    Piece How much I paid back then How much it’s costing now
    2x RAM sticks R$270 ≃ 45€ each R$1000 ≃ 170€ each
    Processor R$1350 ≃ 230€ R$2300 ≃ 390€
    SSD R$240 ≃ 40€ R$500 ≃ 85€
    GPU R$1200 ≃ 200€ it’s all gone

    RAM sticks are, like, 4x the price. That’s bloody madness.
