How old is your PC?

Thread Killer Mk VIII
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.
 
current machine i built in 2013/2014

Gradually upgraded Ram, Gfx, HDD Space, accessories etc

oldest component still in use in it is a 640 gig wd blue that i bought in 2009
 
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. :cool:
 
Different parts have different ages in my PC. My case is very old, Coolermaster Stacker, think my brother originally bought it somewhere around 2005. My CPU and RAM I bought secondhand from my manager and I think they are about 3 or 4 years old. The motherboard I got as a hand me down when one of my brother's friends upgraded, I reckon it's also 3 or 4 years old now. My GPU is 2 weeks old.

Mine is still in the womb...lol It's a month or two away from completion. I've received the CPU and AiO as well as some of the lighting and am waiting for delivery of the rest of the parts :D
 
I got my first PC that I bought with my own money back in mid-2007. Almost ten years later, and in theory it's still the same PC, but not a single part remains from the original build. Every component has been upgraded at least once, some more than that.

I find that swapping out one or two bits at a time is much better than trying to keep the same PC for five years and then upgrading everything at once.
