2017 expectations

>>58173962
4K@144Hz screens.

1TB+ SSDs coming down in price to ~$100

Zen/Ryzen being good.

Two of those are quite realistic.

Can't wait to buy a 4k display and a 1tb SSD then!

>>58173974
Are there even any cards that can run 4K at 144hz? Is high refresh rate past 1440 even necessary ?

My predictions for the next year are:

Unfortunately SSD prices are going to stay either stagnant or they'll climb higher until late next year, due to the shortages.
8TB SSD and more manufacturers pushing products on the market.
OLED TVs and monitors are going to drop dramatically in price, more competition enters the market.
4K@144Hz
USB 3.1 is going to see a hell of a lot more adoption.
Ryzen is going to be good, but going to trade blows with 6800k, maybe even beats it. It will not match 6900k in anything.
5000Mhz RAM kits at the end of 2017
Optane/3D Xpoint going to hit the market, but it's not going to be anything special for the insanely high price it will have. NVMe is already so fast that it makes no sense to buy that stuff.
PCIe 4.0 will start appearing.
Drone deliveries get experimented a lot by many companies.

Absolutely jack shit is going to happen with CPU maximum performance.

And that's what I can think of right now.

I hope salty nutella dies

Linux will become usable and you won't have to dwell into the terminal and Google to fix small bugs that shouldn't be there in the first place.

...who am I kidding

>>58173962
The year of the Linux Desktop

>>58175008
does that exist? I should probably buy it.

hope someone will come out with OLED monitor
i'd be willing to pay $1.5k for it.

2020+

>5000Mhz RAM kits at the end of 2017
actually realistic

>8TB SSD
already a thing

>OLED TVs and monitors
no such thing as OLED monitor yet.
