Look, I'm Not Saying I Want Blowers Back, But This At 150W?

From tiny clown car to rocket-powered death machine in just two generations. The evolution of RAM is basically hardware's version of "how it started vs how it's going." Computer memory went from "barely fits a browser tab" to "could probably simulate the entire universe if you asked nicely." At this rate, DDR6 will just be a black hole that sucks your wallet into another dimension while promising 0.002 nanoseconds faster load times for Chrome. And yet somehow, no matter how fast memory gets, Windows update will still find a way to bring your system to a crawl. It's the law of computing conservation: for every advancement in hardware, software will expand to waste it completely.

Top panel: Guy literally crying over his RTX 4090 because it can't push enough frames on his ultra-expensive monitor. Meanwhile, bottom panel: Chad with a 3060 Ti just vibing with his 1080p setup that'll run Doom Eternal at max settings until the heat death of the universe. The real irony? Top guy probably only plays Valorant and checks email. Bottom guy is just happy his PC boots without catching fire.

Ah, the good old days of snake oil optimization apps. Those "RAM cleaner" apps that would proudly announce they freed up 3GB of RAM on your 1GB phone were the original tech scams before crypto. It's like claiming you emptied 50 gallons from a 10-gallon tank. Pure mathematical wizardry! And we all downloaded them thinking our phones would suddenly run Crysis. The digital equivalent of those "download more RAM" websites. Kids these days with their 12GB phones will never understand the desperate hope of squeezing performance from a potato device.

The ultimate PC builder's walk of shame: replacing a side panel only to break it again immediately. That RGB fan in the background is witnessing the crime scene in real-time! The "Not again!" screaming cat is basically the PC's soul leaving its body. The counter at zero is like those git commit messages that say "final fix v4_ACTUALLY_FINAL_this_time.js" right before you push another 17 commits.

Ah yes, the "Never Obsolete" computer with a blazing fast 566MHz processor and a whopping 64MB of RAM. Currently being used as a $2000 paperweight or a museum exhibit of technological hubris. That 56k modem is probably still faster than some hotel WiFi though. The real irony is that the sticker outlasted the computer's relevance by approximately 23 years and 364 days.

The strongman pulling a truck represents your CPU - powerful but working alone, handling one big task at a time. Meanwhile, the GPU is like those dozens of people working together to pull an airplane - individually weaker but massively parallel. After 15 years in tech, I've watched countless developers throw CPU cores at problems that scream for GPU parallelization. It's like watching someone use a sledgehammer to hang a picture frame.
