I use a 2008 Dell Inspiron laptop as an office PC. I upgraded the CPU, which would be absurd for a new notebook. I also upgraded to 4 GB DDR2, and an SSD. It still works great!

I think it’s always best to keep things maintained and continue using them instead of buying new things. Maybe some of us have a bunch of old stuff laying around. But what stuff are you still using?

    I have an EVGA 850W G2 PSU I bought in early 2015 powering my 13700K and 4090. It’s working fine, but it is old and powering some expensive stuff so I’m not sure if I should be looking for a replacement. I also have a Corsair K70 keyboard from 2015. MX brown switches and red LEDs only. I’m kinda hoping it breaks so I have an excuse to upgrade. And then I have a Galaxy Note 4 from 2014 that’s purely my bedside clock. The clock moves around so the screen doesn’t have burn-in.
