+AM4 is the best CPU platform ever created. Given it was launched in 2016 and is still relevant today.
+
+My first PC build actually wasn't an AM4 build, instead I used an Intel i5-8600K using the LGA 1151 architecture, but since then every PC I've built was with an AM4 chip. Th 5600X is still very relevant today, especially if like me you don't play the latest games.
+
+I just bought a Ryzen 3 3200G, which I plan to use in my main PC, so I can have the GPU de-activated in Linux, lowering the power consumption. Unfortunately it's shipped with DPD so it probably won't be here for a week... Although shout out to AWD-IT for still stocking this processor new in box, apparently they had to order some in just to fulfil my order.
+
+I'll update with benchmarks and info about the 3200G build when it arrives.
+
+Side note: I'm so glad I own a decent amount of DDR4 RAM. If I had to buy new RAM with current prices I would be pissed.

+
+My `~/.kshrc` (equivalent to `~/.bashrc` for `ksh`/`oksh`) is far too long, currently almost 500 lines. Additionally I have a local `aliases.sh` file containing about 100 lines.
+
+I'm going to make it a mini-project to trim this down a lot, by a) deleting unnecessary stuff and b) moving larger functions into separate files. I'd also like to completely get rid of my local `aliases.sh` file (by local I just mean it's not on GitHub). It contains things which are more private (for example `ssh` aliases for Uni servers), but I should be able to anonymise it all...
