I'm in the process of saving up for a complete PC setup and my goal is around $8,000, which includes everything since I only have a basic mouse and an old laptop to work with. I initially thought about saving up the full budget first and then making all my purchases at once. However, given the current situation with RAM and graphics card prices, I'm wondering if I should buy those components sooner rather than later and then keep saving for the rest.

Keep in mind, usually there's an easy 30-day return policy which can help if you change your mind. Also, think about how long it’ll realistically take you to save up the rest of your budget. If you think it’ll take a while, grabbing the RAM and GPU now might be wise.
With an $8,000 budget, you can pretty much get whatever you want, whenever you want. Just be smart about your purchases! Prices can fluctuate, but the whole setup will definitely be worth it in the end.
Even with the current market mess, you could build a strong machine for around $2,000. Sure, that's more than last year's prices, but it's still less than what many paid back in the day for decent PCs. Just remember that while it’s great to want top-tier performance, you don't always need to compete with console pricing anymore.
