    If you’ve been pricing up a new gaming PC lately, you’ve probably had the same reaction as everyone else in Lithgow, Bathurst, Orange, Dubbo and Katoomba: “Why is RAM suddenly made of unobtainium… and why do GPUs cost the same as a small second-hand car?” When parts are expensive, every dollar matters.
