This is my first own mod.
I've always been bothered by how unrealistic the pricing of some CPUs in PCBS was (though it's for balancing reasons).
In my opinion, however, this doesn't reflect that some CPUs are simply far better value than others, and thus I created this mod!
The prices were adapted to the ones found on geizhals.de, a price comparing site for Germany, Austria and the UK. Pricing is from the 16th of May 2019.
For currently produced CPUs like Intel 9000 series and AMDs Ryzen 2000 series, I took their current prices.
For older, out-of-production models such as Intel's 6000 and 7000 series or AMDs first-gen Ryzen, I took the lowest recorded price that they sold for at the end of production, excluding short-time special offers.
This mod also changes the pricing of all my other mods' CPUs (Ryzen PRO, FX, LGA2011-v3). If you don't have those installed, it will throw errors for those CPUs, but it should just skip them in the end, so they aren't needed for this mod to work.
Updates on this mod will probably be fairly infrequent, as it's quite an arduous task to go through that many CPUs one by one.
This mod uses a Powershell script, so you'll need foreign scripts to be allowed to run (details in the readme file of the mod).
WARNING
This mod will break balancing and make some CPUs great value buys and others very horrible ones. The ingame performance of the CPUs doesn't get touched though.
Others are free to adapt the prices to their own currency, but if you want to share those, please PM me and I'll add your version to this mod after a quick check.
