bought an i5-3570k in 2012 .. dont see any reason for me to upgrade in the next 2 or 3 years tbqh

When it doesn't do the things I want it to anymore and I have the money to buy a cpu that does.

never (｡>﹏

3-5 years unless CPU improvments have been really slow

v cute response

>tfw 2500k
>tfw futureproofed 4 life

lol you wish

>FX 6300
I have never upgraded my CPU and will never upgrade.

Source? Reverse Image search gives me nothing.

I went from an i7-920 to an i5-6600k

Unless something changes dramatically in the CPU market, which it might now that AMD competes, I see no reason to upgrade until at least 2022

When the piece of shit dies.

>Mfw using i5-4690 from a Core2 E8400

IT'S A TRAP

Pentium 1 to 4 to Dual Core E8400 to i7-920 to now a i7 6700K.

Feels good. Never touched that filthy AMD.

That makes it more appealing to me!

pls gibe sauce b0ss

Phenom II to this Ivy, Ivy to ??? It'll die by the time they have something I want to purchase. AMDing for 4/8 i5 or maybe used lake i7.

Used? You like playing dangerously like a certain British.

When it doesn't perform well enough anymore.

Currently on an i7 870, still not seeing any motivation to upgrade yet.

I don't know, been running a Q9550 since I got it in 2008. Overclocked to 4GHz now and it's still sort of enough for single player games. Might finally upgrade when Zen 2 hits the shelves (second generation should have the kinks ironed out, I hope).

Sauce?

Rewrite (It's a visual novel by Key. Although, there is an anime for it right now as well, but I suggest against watching that because the first season is pretty shit).

When AMD comes out with a new process or arch

About every 5-8 years

I've never had a single CPU die on me. I've had CPUs starting from the first wave of Pentiums. Most of them just became obsolete. My Q8400 is still running strong in a relative's PC.

When I can no longer use the computer it is in so that I have to build an entirely new computer.
So far it seems to be roughly every 8 years

I've had a Pentium MMX 233MHz die after a few years of running fanless
also had a Athlon X3 bite the dust

this stuff might not have the HP of mechanical harddrives, but they're not invincible..

Cute boy

Everytime I buy a new mobo (kinda goes without saying).

For just-CPU upgrades: when I feel that my CPU is bottlenecking me. In a desktop PC I started with a dual core celeron and used it for years, I upgraded to Core2 E8500 when I started to use virtual machines (celeron doesn't have Intel-V) and use processor intensive programs (like gentoo compiling)

Whenever I hit something my whole system can't handle and I absolute must do that thing, I do a complete upgrade
Went from a core2duo e6700 to an i5 4460s
Thinking of moving to either a nicer mid tier Xeon system or one of the new ryzen processors soon, because my cad work is getting it bit too intensive sometimes for the i5 and 280x

>gentoo compiling

Lmao get a life you fucking loser

Every 4 years like clockwork. 1998, 2002, 2006, 2010, 2014. I thought I would skip 2018's upgrade because Jewtel, but now that Ryzen is out, there's no excuse.

I'm still on a Q6600 I got almost 10 years ago.

Go for the 6/12 Ryzen, dude. I have a 6300 and will be pulling the trigger in May.

Bought a 3820 some years ago.
Contemplating upgrading to a 6700K/7700K because it seems we've reached the end of CPU improvements anyway.

I have a i5 4670k since 5 years ago.
I will probably never upgrade it unless it breaks. I will just get a new pc in 5-15 years or so.

Really spangles your bangles.
