I am getting an itch to upgrade... but i can't justify it. My PC still runs flawlessly and does everything that I want. My firefox has 50+ tabs open, I'm streaming videos, playing music via winamp or pandora, working in AutoCAD or MSoffice or Photoshop or playing the latest video games - and all of this at the same time.
I'm looking in the display forum, and really, nothing is blowing my socks off, some of the best 24" IPS displayed are still the same ones from 2 years ago at least.
The only piece of my setup which I may finally upgrade is my RAID 6 array... I am running out of the 10TB of space i had on it using 2TB drives. Maybe time to move to 4TB drives and double up.
Nothing in the graphics department has really moved anywhere (blame consoles if you want) Crysis 3 is one of the few exceptions to this.
Anyone else have a similar "problem"?
There doesn't seem to be that much, in terms of software advancement in the last 2-3 years that would stress a PC as in the 30 years before that. Might as well just keep folding for the [H]orde!
