QOTW: Which PC components did you upgrade in 2019?

[globalwarning]

Nothing! Will likely update my gaming monitor around christmas, but I'm going to wait until the next gen of CPUs (Ryzen 4000) and GPUs (we'll see) to update.

This year got me a ryzen 3 2200g(will have to update soon to 3400g or next gen apu.), General computing and networking, great for me, micro am4 board very tiny case 16gb ddr4 3000ghz, ssd 256, hdd 2tb. psu 300 watt, wifi, laptop dvd drive, new monitor 24 asus full hd cause my old one began to show lines.

Added the silent Palit Geforce 1050 Ti KalmX to my system. Great improvement in photo-processing times, and I still have a completely fanless and silent machine.

R5 3600 / MSI B450M Mortar Max / 32Gb Crucial 3200mhz / 480Gb Corair MP510 and 2x1tb MX500 SSDs. Oh and a Noctua NH-U12S.

Only thing i didn't upgrade was my GTX1080 and case.

Very happy bunny with all.

I have a computer with the best pre-Zen AMD CPU and DDR3 Rams, originally 4GBs, this year upgraded to 32GB, so I can have open all the tabs my Chrome needs, whilst still having enough for casual gaming. Sadly, now I'm bottlenecked by the CPU. The lack of upgradibility means that the next thing to get is a whole new setup, probably with B550 MB and maybe 3750x CPU and whatever else I find that fits whatever budget I'm gonna have.

I managed to make do with another graphics card upgrade, GTX750ti to a GTX1660. Only when that arrived it needed an 8 pin power connector, so back to Scan and a chance to move from a 120mm fan unit to a 140mm one. I love the bigger slower fans for less noticeable noise.

Maybe next year for the big DDR3 to DDR4 transition and the move beyond four cores.

CPU and RAM upgraded this year.
CPU Ryzen 9 3900X (from Ryzen 7 1800X)
RAM Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4-3600 32GB (4x8GB) from Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-2400 32GB (2x16GB)
Could not be happier with the processor performance and no issues with it at all on an old X370 board.
The RAM upgrade was mostly about the RGB!

In October I bought a Phanteks Evolve x, Corsair HX 750 PSU, Asus X570 gaming-e MB, Ryzen 3700X, Corsair 64 GB rgb ddr4 Ram,Corsair H100I PLATINUM RGB AIO, Sapphire nitro+ 8 GB rx-580 GPU, Samsung 970 evo plus 500 GB M.2 ssd and 1 extra phanteks fan and and 2 extra digital rgb light strips also phanteks, so in short a totally new build I put together, my last Tower PC I also built was based on the Intel core i7 4770K which I bought in Jan 2014 and was getting to be bit slow with rendering in Adobe, I don't regret switching to AMD these latest Ryzen processors are absolutely brilliant especially with multi threaded apps

[Century22]

ALL of them ! I'm building a new PC.

[lyesbkz]

None, but I think I'll need a new video card soon. The 980 Ti is getting a bit dated...

[Core2Extreme]

Nothing internally... yet, anyway. Still running a 2500K (Sandy Bridge), RX 480, 8 GB RAM, and 1 TB 850 Evo + a couple HDDs. It'll either be a full Ryzen rebuild, or perhaps a RAM boost, next.

Externally, I added a second 6 TB cold storage backup drive, so I have a redundant off-site backup. Also had to replace a mouse whose left mouse button was double-registering at times.

I've been tempted by Zen for over two years now, but my 2500K just keeps being too darn adequate to justify an upgrade. I may wind up building a new rig over the holidays, but I could just as easily see myself not doing so until Zen 3 (and maybe DDR5/the next socket?).

Upgraded MoBo to Gigabyte Aorus Ultra Z390, CPU to iNTEL Core i9 9900KF, Corsair Hydro 115i Pro Cooler, GPU to Gigabyte RX Vega 64 (Vega 10 XT)OC edition 8 Gb HBM2, Primary Hard Drive to Samsung 970 Pro 512Gb M2 NVME.

[V1nny]

I've just upgraded my Z390 9600k for a nice AMD X570 and 3700X combo
loving the extra cores and threads
