Does everyone really upgrade their builds?

Yeah, I'm still on my 1st PC, originally built 26 years ago, which contained a zip disc ! I've occasionally changed mobo, CPU and RAM at once, but GPU, storage, cases, PSU etc always overlapped. Of course, the last original component disappeared nearly 2 decades ago, but it's been a continuous stream. I've often done a CPU upgrade within a socket and sometimes changed cpu and mobo while keeping RAM.

i tend to upgrade when i can and theres a decent improvement, be it any component really my last am4 board i started on a ryzen 3600 and went to a 5700x plus i doubled the ram and got faster ram as well plus various ssd upgrades and other random stuff.

for the moment nothing needs upgraded on this rig i went all in on am5 and reused a lot of drives etc from my old rig, think my next upgrade will be a gpu but nothing is really tempting me out the new crop over the 7800xt i already have for 1440p

I tend to upgrade things like the GPU and storage a lot more than CPU/RAM these days.

Although that is partly because for the last 12 years or so I've put quite large amounts of RAM in the machine at build (my last one in 2012ish had 32gb and my current one has 64gb).
