I've seen some hardware unboxing videos, but tech deals are different. I need to include him in my rotation and appreciate your more suggestions.

So I can't say I've heard of SK Hynix either. I'm like super new into the inner workings of computers so there is still a lot I'm learning but thank you for the clarification. I'll keep both of those brands in mind in the future.

SK Hynix holds approximately 30% of the DRAM market and varies between 15-20% in the NAND sector. They focus mainly on supplying memory components rather than consumer products. They acquired Intel's SSD division and launched Solidigm, which is expected to be the brand for their future in-house SSDs. It seems they do not directly sell DRAM. Their DDR5 ICs currently lead in clock speeds.

Even though I'm just starting with PC components, I found Intel's socket life quite intriguing. I wasn't sure why it was important, but I hadn't checked if there was anything to discover yet.

I think and I might be mistaken for a couple of reasons.
1. Hubris, because for a long time Intel was the top performer (similar to Nvidia's current situation), so we can sell what we want when we want and people will pay!
2. It wasn't to weaken their performance going forward, which is why the two-year socket life was designed so they could create better CPUs using the best platforms available for the future.
Kinda backfired when AMD still outperformed them in certain cases with their own AM4 platform!
