Black Friday 2016

Only saved $90 for new parts bc crippling debt

This is so fucking stupid.
If you need a new computer, you buy at the time you need it.
Waiting months and months and depriving yourself of a new computer for months just to save a bit of money tells me that your time is completely worthless because you would have bought the parts already if you needed the computer NOW.

You seem pretty pissed off at the idea that people would plan ahead for a big purchase. No, I don't need a new computer, my current one is fine for my daily use. It's just pretty old (phenom ii), has no cable management, and limits me from doing a PCI passthrough build. Since there's no emergency, I can do some research on my purchase.

planning to get some ssds to stick on some older laptops

This is true, but the one exception is on the cusp of new stuff, IE the RX 480. But the rule for that is 'don't wait until you know the release date'

black friday has been a joke for a very long time. it's a consumer cattle call at this point with mediocre "deals" and crowds of idiots.

just buy parts as they go on sale/clearance.
