The meeting went meh, but I'll share more later/tomorrow.

In the meantime though, I have news that makes me happy. I installed the new RAM and didn't break anything! I also bought the new GPU finally after being advised by the computer shop it would be compatible (I'd already checked, but I don't feel super confident in these things so would rather have them tell me it will work. At least then if it doesn't I can be like "hey, this GPU isn't fit for purpose. Gonna need to return it thanks"). But $455... Fucking oof. It better make my games happier. Now to eagerly check the order page every hour until they ship it :D

Edit: fucking of course right after I paid for it I've seen it elsewhere for 40 bucks cheaper. Ugh.
