I've been using the same computer since 2016 and it feels good as new

has technology really stagnated that much
>>
I use 3rd gen i7 with 8gb ram and a hard disk at my job every day. It's not slow at all, because even 10 years ago youtube, streaming, multimedia was just expected so even 100 dollar optiplexes can basically do anything short of heavy gaming (but these can run LoL in 720p fine)

I'm looking forward to sniping mountains of perfectly good 5 year old hardware from all of the Windows retards abandoning their non-TPM PCs.
it's going to be a feast

are you talking about the windows 10 ending updates thing? yes, you're supposed to upgrade now because it's no longer good for security

now i'm using a thinkpad T540p, with

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4710MQ (8) @ 3.50 GHz
GPU 1: NVIDIA GeForce GT 730M [Discrete]
GPU 2: Intel 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller @ 1.15 GHz [Integrated]

16 gigs of memory

as my i9 9900k (2018/2019, but i bought it in 2021 or in 2022) + RX6600 desktop's motherboard just died after 3 years of usage and all of the components were brand new, and i hadn't even gayme on this computer, just very, very few times

and i had to use my X220 (2011), T540p (2013), and these machines are rock still rock solid

i have a friend, he had an i9 11th gen + and RTX2070, he is literally almost a 30 yo NEET and he just gaymes all day, his motherboard got obliterated in 2 and a half years, not sure if 3 years

so, i don't think this is a coincidence regarding planned obsolescence

if i were to buy another computer, i would just buy thinkstations with intel xeons, they are extremely cheap and very powerful, you can buy a P500 with 200-300 euros, with an CPU that has 18 cores, 36 threads, 3.5 ghz, they even come with dedicated GPUs, 16 / 32 GB of RAM, SSDs, HDDs
