Eh I feel like there's companies on both ends of the spectrum. Ones that upgrade on a hard three year schedule (great way to get poweredges) and ones that are still rocking 500GB HDDs from 2010 (not that I'd know

Yeah, it's called amortization, butyou don't always want to use a high depreciation rate because it depends on what kind of tax advantages you get with it for each year. There's nothing inherently wrong with this.

Lot of liquid cooling. It's only an extra $300-450.
Depends on the case, but if you push the PC, it'll generate a lot of heat and not enough airflow to kick it out. Again, depends on the case (and how much peak performance you really need--not much for gaming).

No, because tariffs are going to encourage Nvidia to up the prices or replace the 5090 with a more expensive 5090ti. If you care about value in any respect, you aren't buying a 5090.

What's the safest way to buy a used 4090 without something wrong with it?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Use ebay and filter by the seller having a return policy. Read their product description. If what you get is not as described, you just ship it back and get your money back. I've hardly had to do this, and the few times I did, I had no problems getting my money. I've bought and sold 100s of PC parts and PCs on ebay.
Also, only buy from people with high ratings. Not losers with 0 stars or a few because it's most likely stolen or a box of rocks.
