Random question for the group: how many of you went all out from the start spending a ton of money on your rig, and how many started lower planning to build up over time? I myself built up over time, but just wondered how many went what route

Save up and build all at once

I didn'r save up. I just did my entire room at once.

Very nice setups, I would show mine but it's a bit buried right now... Lol

 

[Micky Bottoms]

i went all out in one order

 

[Benjamin Bain]

I started with a mid range 800 dollar rig in 2012. i5 3470, GTX 660, 16 gigs of RAM, etc... Now it's grown to a heavily OCed 3770k, 32 gigs of RAM, r9 390/290 crossfire cards, and several storage drives

My first ever build was part by part.. it was a learning curve as the first part i ordered was an X4 750k from AMD lol.. doomed my rig from the start!. Since then every build (2 others) have been lump sum purchases

 

[David Livengood]

Saved up 4 stacks and bought everything at once

 

[Mike Magwire]

I just build and replace the whole thing. PCIe 4.0 comes out after coffeelake.. 6 years from now well have hardware advanced enough to not need replacing.

10 years i went all in and spent 1700€, i only needed to make 2 upgrades since gpu and RAM. Now after 10 years i need to make a New upgrade im thinking 1500€ in cpu, gpu RAM mobo and psu
