Question's about your PC

[Queen of Ice]

about Your PC when did you get your PC and how much it costed and are you planning on upgrading soon?

I built my last desktop around November 2019 i believe. Probably spent around $1200 at the time.

I'd love to do a graphics card update but with current pricing that doesn't seem too possible for now.

I got my PC as a "build your own PC" customizer type for ~$3000. I do desperately need to upgrade the CPU as that's a large ass bottleneck (many people don't believe in the term but believe me when I say it applies very badly in this case) and I'll probably do so later on, it's hard to find a compatible CPU with my computer that's a viable upgrade option that's not being scalped and sold for a 500% upmark.

I paid 1200 for a 3080,I7 10th gen, 32 GB, 1tb m.2 and it's a pre built. I would never touch a rebuilt normally, but the GPU for the price was to good t pass imo

Given GPU prices and how prebuilts are not the poop they were ten years ago; no shame in buying it.

My latest computer is a Nvidia Geforce 3060 dual ac with a Ryzen 5 3600 with a B550-A PRO and it cost me around $1900

I paid about 2000 usd around the start of the gpu prices getting so high

650-700 I believe when I first bought it. I've done a bunch of upgrades. Probably $1000 in upgrades over the past 4 years

I bought my 'first gaming pc' back in 2013 from a local guy, which looking back he way overcharged for the crap in it and his 'time'. Built my actual pc in the end of 2015 with an i7-6700 and a 9704GB(3.5GB was a funny lawsuit) and spent about 1K on it after taxes, I technically still have this build but have upgraded it over the years, still the same CPU but new everything else. Current specs below for mine and the wifes rigs and the attached images of the first build and current rigs

My rig has roughly cost me 1.6K over the years the wife's build was 1K with deals! I always plan to upgrade and make changes when I can for the right price, my motherboard and cpu is next haha.
