    Default How old is your PC?

    Specs aside, I'd be interested to know how old every ones PC is and whether you've upgraded anything in it.

    Mine will be 7 years old in November with no upgrades.

    My PC was bought in December 2012, so that makes it about 4 years old. The only upgrades its had is a new GPU which I added recently (AMD RX470) and a new PSU that was added after the inital PSU got fried

    Bought mine in July of 2010, only upgrade is that I added an extra hard drive or two. Although, I've replaced the standard keyboard with a Roccat in 2011, and have gone through 3 mice in the time. Damned Cookie Clicker.

    The oldest parts of my PC I bought in April 2011 (my case, PSU, hard drive or 2, screen), the rest I have upgraded since then, with the most recent upgrade being the CPU, MOBO, RAM and CPU Cooler just several months ago.

    I bought mine in January so it's not even a year old. The one before that I bought in 2010 and my wife currently uses it. I just upgraded the video card and the RAM.

    I recently upgraded most of my PC in December last year.

    But some of the oldest components are my 22" LCD Samsung (1680x1050) at 8 years and still going strong.
    Keyboard - Razer Lycosa a bit worn but otherwise fine, about 7 years
    Raidmax Aztec case - 7 years (could do with an new case, mostly had to replace fans though)

    Geez, this is a really difficult question to answer because I started building my PC in 2010 and I've been adding, upgrading and changing things on it so much that the PC I have today is not the same thing I built 6 years ago.

    Case in point, what I posted here has already had two things changed in it. I upgraded my keyboard to a Corsair K70 and my GPU to an R9 Fury X. I think the oldest component in my system is either my Blu-Ray writer or my Asus sound card, otherwise everything else is new or has been replaced in the last 3 years.
