What Should I Do If I Can't Buy My PC Parts Right Now?
Asked by

I'm planning to build a PC between February and March next year, but I'm worried about the skyrocketing prices for RAM and GPUs. I have a budget of 55,000 Philippine pesos (around $932). My plan is to start receiving the parts gradually from December through to February and March. What's the best strategy for me?

Keep an eye on RAM prices; they typically drop in spring. If you find a good deal on RAM now, it might be a good idea to snag it, but don’t stress too much. Just make sure you're aware of return policies!

You might want to buy now if you can find good prices, but do check return policies since I had a bad experience with a delayed part messing up my build's return timeline.

Instead of rushing into purchases, I’d suggest holding off until February or March. Prices can be very unpredictable right now, so waiting might save you some cash in the long run.

If you can buy parts now without blowing your budget, I’d say go for it! Prices can keep increasing, especially for RAM. Just make sure you compare prices before buying anything.

I think it’s wise to wait and see how prices fluctuate in February. Besides, new GPU releases might drop the prices of existing models, so it could be worth hanging on a bit.
