Sticking to DDR3 until society finally collapses , I am also building a nice ddr2 build for super cheap that still runs all my physical games collection!
I still have some DDR3, but no motherboard for it. We need DDR4, but I don't suppose anyone will want to trade in that direction.
My DDR3 mini itx board already has the max capacity installed years ago, which was 16gb. It's reached the ceiling :(
Just change the mobo man but stick to ddr3. I am gonna die on this hill man, computing died in 2013
I have love for this machine. It has a 6W TDP CPU and 16GB LPDDR3. Unfortunately the CPU is soldered to the board. Recently added a PCI expansion for 1 extra SATA slot for an extra disk. Works great, but it's pretty much maxed out now. Gonna hold onto this for as long as it goes.
