Honestly I know PC part prices are insanely high now but don't have much to compare it with haha. First time we bought a pc! We have an iMac at home as well. We got the peripherals, so the PC nursery is ready for arrival :ROFLMAO: order is still processing though so I'm guessing we're in for the long haul. Good to practice my patience!

yup, you pay for brand and ecosystem. But the price for the hardware is mega overpriced. You never get the performance you could get on pc for certain amount of money.

ps. this is not hate against apple, this are just pure facts.

I'm guessing the 3060 stock isn't as bad as the 3070/3080. I was fully prepared to wait a month as well haha!
