I think the entire PC industry is next. PC cases, fans, heat sinks, and all the YouTubers that review them.

I stopped watching many tech YouTubers because there’s absolutely no point in knowing about the latest hardware when I am absolutely not going to buy a PC until things normalize.

Before, even when I wasn’t in the market for a new PC, I’d still keep up on news because I might get one in the future.

I hope the whole industry suffers. They put corporate profit over consumers. Reap what you sow.

  What are the consumers going to do, stop consuming? Don’t make me laugh.

    What do you call a 25% reduction in motherboard sales if not reduced consumption?

  They sold out their customers to the corporate overlords.
  
  You are no longer their customer.
  
  You have been replaced.
