With a lot of mixed feelings that I am now announcing the permanent closing of SC Computer Work. It has been a fun 7 years, but the final nail to the closure is due to moving into a new home. It would have severely raised my cost of insurance which makes this completely unprofitable. I have always said that I do this for fun. With AI spiking RAM and storage prices and now the insurance there is no fun and just stress. If it doesn't spark joy you must let it go.

All products under warranty will still be honored, and looked after.

Reused photo but using it to make a point. With the current market pricing on memory chips used on RAM and SSDs driving prices out of control has left me in a position I can not take part of.

I will be taking a step back away from any build and repairs that require RAM or storage upgrades. Graphics cards will be joining soon as well as they are expected to increase in price soon as well.

If you are wanting those things and you have deep pockets then by all means feel free to do so. I just can't justify spending an amount on RAM and storage that is on par with or more than graphics cards and CPUs.

Hopefully in the next year pricing will come down (even by half), but currently it doesn't look like it.
