Case/chasis: 15 years and counting

Motherboard/CPU: ~5 years (currently: 6.5 years)

RAM: ~2 years until maxed out (currently: maxed out)

GPU: ~3-6 years (currently: 3 years)

I had hoped to do a new build last year, but it’s just too expensive. For now I’m planning to use what I have until it breaks.

Same, except I always buy more ram than I think I’ll ever need.

Currently my desktop has 64 and I don’t think I’ve even used 32 on it with a vm running. Every other machine I destroy my ram. By the time I need more I’m probably going to upgrade CPU/board too.

This is me. Case/chasis/cpu all 10ish years old. Gpu is at about 3 years and ram in the last 2. Was planning a fresh new build but…gestures wildly. Riding it till it dies i guess
