A second m.2 for trying out the switch to Linux. It went well, primary boot now.
I just installed another m.2 for the same reason. I’m hung up on what distribution use though and haven’t made it any further.
Opensuse. There. I’ve picked for you.
No more excuses now. Go boot and install your favorite game.
What distro you go?
Same
That was a long time ago tho
New SSD for games and VMs.
Bought a mouse with silent clicks, so I don’t disturb my partner with my raging click barrages.
Nice idea, which model is it?
Kudos to my partner for bugging me about my annoying clickety-click.
It’s a simple Logitech M650, nothing special or fancy, but I don’t play competitively on a level where that kind of stuff matters.
I had to buy a louder keyboard because my girlfriend enjoyed the clicking
Thanks

I just bought a steam deck.
Last week from a Ryzen 3700x to a 7800x3d, so new mobo, cooler and ram as well. The 3700x was a bottleneck in some games for my GPU. Performs well now.
My niece will upgrade from an old 7 series Intel to my old 3700x, x570 chipset mobo, Deepcool double fan CPU cooler and 32 GB ram. I will give her my old GTX1080 as well. Whole system perfectly fine for WOW classic.
A 4070 to replace my 2080S. The improvement was fairly noticeable.
The Mobile Athlon CPU, with unlocked multipliers I was able to overclock like crazy. It was something like 20 years ago.
Seriously, replaced a 2x6Tb raid1 of mechanical hdd’s with 4x4tb raid 5 SSDs. Amazing update in terms of noise reduction and power consumption. As for speed, I don’t care, the content is consumed over the network anyway.
This probably shouldn’t count, but I diagnosed and removed a bad stick of RAM. It works much better now. Since I was running on 32Gb, I haven’t really noticed the drop to 16. I’d been blaming system instability on not knowing how to properly maintain Linux and shit drivers. Turns out
Prior to that was when I bought a 2TB SSD.
Added a 2.5gbps max network card. Still not getting the 2gbps i paid for, unsure why…

My rig is close to 20 years old and I recently upgraded the motherboard, CPU and RAM which were the last original parts on it - the GPU I had replaced few years prior. Now the case is the only original part on my “PC of Thesus”
EDIT: Oh yeah and I’m also running Linux now.
Wooting 80he keeb
Before that:
4080 on runout.
Year before that I did mobo+7800x3d, 64gb ddr5, 4tb nvme for games.
Oh and C4 OLED + dual 27" 1920*1200 portrait wings.
I think I’m not touching it for a long time the way things are going
It’s been a while. I usually leapfrog upgrade, but I did it all last time: i5-10600k, 3060Ti, an m.2 SSD. Was amazed at the size of the SSD.
I overclocked the CPU and it’s held up way better than I had expected, but as raytracing stops being optional more and more, I don’t know how much time my GPU has left.
