Had this computer since late 2012, I need to upgrade the graphic card and it will be good as new in my opinion.
The specs are:
CPU: Intel i7 3930k (This CPU still amazes me to this day, the hexagon design is top quality, no overheating issues and i've not been able to throw anything at my CPU that would cause it to halt or have difficulities, excluding benchmarking enviroments, a true beast.
RAM: I started with 8GB ram 2133mhz, upgraded it to 16gb ram 1333MHZ because my 4x2 sticks were causing me booting issues for some reason.
GPU: I'm still using that old GTX 680 GPU, I may upgrade it soon for The Witcher 3.

Overall i'm still satisfied with how it performs, except for the graphic card, I may just upgrade the graphic card only, unlike my older computers whom I upgraded multiple pieces.

Rather funny thing is my firefox seems to struggle a lot more in my wearing-out SSD, than from my RAM or CPU.

I have a desktop 4 years ago with an AMD 6-cores, 8 gb of RAM DDR3 and SSD as primary HD. Maybe I need a better GPU but I don't play any games.

Im buying new computer in next 2-3 month probably, however my main is really old right now... that old that he makes me forget sometimes how slow is he Cheesy
Its 8 years already, but some parts have been replaced. I have changed the disk from SATA to SSD but currently im using only 1 disk.
Rest is old, but my graphic card is getting fucked, some strange "artifacts" are going on the screen sometimes Sad

I have a computer constantly breaks down. I'm sick of it repaired. Although he was only 1 year. Perhaps it is time again to buy a new

Built it in 2007, stupid thing doesn't run anymore though keeps getting Windows errors despite numerous tries to fix it. Too cheap to buy a new one, so roll with my 2010 macbook solely now.

I owned 1 desktop computer with minor specifications on it. It has an i3 processor and now still kicking for 5 years. It was already the 2nd time I changed the motherboard because it got burned. Mine has no dedicated video card and that is why my motherboard f*ck up easily. I can still play games like nba2k16, modern warfare etc. I bought it long time ago for 19k, whole desktop package that Includes CPU, Monitor and other peripherals. Since I got a job and I was able to save some money. I already bought Asus GL552vx and runs perfectly.

A little over three years old, still works great. Would of course be much cheaper to get the same specs today.
