Old puter - still good enuff till I save some pennies!
I will change soon on my 4GB ddr2 pc for 8 GB ddr2, these are the plans.
3rd gen ryzen, PSU
Going to get a new keyboard and mouse. The rest of it I'm pretty happy with.
Well I just bought a bigger ssd for os and programs, a 500GB Samsung evo 860 to replace my 250GB Samsung evo 850, because the latter was getting bit tight on space. The 250GB will now replace my 128GB Crucial M4 (got to give credit to crucial for this drive as it's still going strong) as my scratch disk and the crucial will go in a caddy as a cheap usb ssd.
As to the rest, in all honesty I'm not really planning to upgrade anything else but at the same time I'm not against upgrading everything if money allows or work requires a stronger system.

I would like to go for one of the new cooler NVIDIA 8GB cards.
But, prices need to come down first.
My upgrade plans are based entirely on what type of PC Cyberpunk 2077 will need to run at decent settings, which also depends on if it gets released this year. I'm quite tempted by the leaked specs of the 3700X, so would base a whole new PC around that, if needed, but I'm going to try and push things back a bit further if possible, and maybe leave out upgrading at all this year, since I don't want to waste money if I don't need to. My current CPU is ancient (an i7 875K), but it is still surprising me with how it manages to keep doing ok.
Nothing really. Spent heavily in the summer, moving to an Ultrabook/eGPU setup. Very happy with the result.
I'll probably have to cough up for components for the kids' PCs, and I wouldn't mind moving the servers and NAS to 8TB drives, but I'm nowhere near capacity yet, so that'll probably wait for another year at least.
Oh, my venerable Logitech G500 is on it's way out, but that's a peripheral rather than a component.
AMD Ryzen 9 4950x and Vega 128 32Gb and to top it all 8Tb SSD NVme...
The more you live, less you die. More you play, more you die. Isn't it great.
Will I would like a new MB/CPU/RAM combo as my 3570k is getting a bit old, but still waiting for ram prices to drop before I pull the trigger so many be a while yet.
Basic plan to Ryzen + 32gb ram depending what is the best solution at the time but a Ryzen 3000 will be epic if the leaks are true.
Definitely a new gpu,Still on 980ti's in sli. Showing their age at 1440p 165hz.
Possibly a complete new build depending how these new AMD cpu's are.
DO NOT buy a "gaming chair"! I learned the expensive way.
Absolute garbage, no back support in them other than a hard cushion they throw in to make up for poor design.
Spend the extra $ and get a decent ergonomic chair designed for sitting for more than 2 hours!
Herman Miller - Aeron,Embody,Mirra,Celle
Steel Case - Leap
I went for something a little cheaper but with the same benefits as most of those, Seville high back mesh executive.

It's AFRDI(google it) approved which those gaming chairs are not, Very high standards above European standards.

My 7700K is starting to show its age in some of the more multi-threaded applications so I'll maybe look to replace that, along with the motherboard, but other than that I'm absolutely happy with it.
Just ordered an Acer Predator Z35P because I missed my old ultrawide, though, so that might be my purchase of the year.
3440 x 1440 resolution, G-Sync support, 120Hz refresh, VA panel, 35" display.
Definitely a RTX Card will help.
CPU, Motherboard, DDR5. Been wanting to upgrade to 144hz/240hz, keep putting off because they are very expensive. I think I'll keep the 1070 that I have. It's been good so far.
