Though the motherboards and ram modules are also harder to find and with far less choice. (and actually the processors are too, depending on your market)

Yes, sure, motherboards and CPUs have far less choices. But generally plenty for any normal use case. Motherboards and CPUs have a crazy number of flavors, none of which matter one whit for normal use cases. It's so bad motherboards are differentiating on the manliness of the heat sink design, lighting options, and the color of the motherboard.
