Nope... I really want a new case and PSU (These are confirmed to be replaced) and a new GPU as this one IS SOO WEAK. :( Especially when you want a 1440p monitor or 1080p at 120-144Hz.

For the most part yes. Just wish is was smaller (mini ITX) and had a more quiet graphics card. Also could do with a new monitor and mouse.

My current build suits my needs better than I could have expected. I went from a four year old laptop to what I have now in my profile and I am not going back to a mediocre setup ever again. The difference is to great.

I don't understand how you can't be satisfied if you built your computer by yourself. I don't consider "I need to upgrade because xyz" in that because otherwise you would never be satisfied.

For now I am satisfied. 

 

In the future I would like to add another 500GB Evo to raid with my current one, and another 980. After all of that I will be looking deeper into a custom loop, but that is a ways out. For now it does what I want quite well.

I originally bought my computer as a refurbished cyberpower from Newegg. I've since replaced everything except the cpu, mobo, and case. The OCed i5-750 and P55M combination are fine for another year to two, but the case is big with terrible airflow, so I'm switching to a Corsair Air 240 and a Zalman 8900 Quiet this Christmas.

I am satisfied with my build because its reliable, very responsive yet did not cost much. I had the PSU from my very outdated computer so bought a mobo a ssd some ram and an APU, thats it!

I want to get a second used 24" screen soon and maybe get a mechanical keyboard, budget one from cherry probably. Thats really all I need. Studying Computer Science btw.

I'm trying to hold my anxiety and wait for Skylake, but damn, even with DX12 helping next year, the great warrior 2600k is getting old...

+ sata 2 HD

+ non-mechanical keyboard

+ can`t "mod" my case the way I wanted to

+ good monitor, but wanted something better really

 

Still, I'm pretty happy with what I have, it does it's job

i made the mistake of jumping on a GPU. 
To be fair, at the time of purchasing the first one, i was using a 9600 GT, and a core two duo.
At the time, it was a major upgrade, and later on a system with a dead mobo and a core two quad came in, and i nicked the CPU for my build.
I spent a few months playing some awesome games i could never play before, and started buying parts one by one (baaaadddd choice. get them all at once) and eventually ended up with the rig in my sig  (i have to change it), and then just this month moved from my 8350 to an i 7 4790K (love it btw) and an MSI Gaming 7 z97 board.

Now i need to replace these crappy, unstable, annoying GPUs with one (maybe two) gtx 980s, and then replace all three of my screens with matching 144Hz 1080 P screens.
I can't wait, but i kinda have too :3

Lesson of the day, save your money, and get it all at once. 
That way you don't constantly change your system like me, you can keep the cost, and work to a minimum, and all your warranties line up.
You also save a tonne on shipping. 
Gahhh, it'l be a neverending upgrade cycle!!!!

I'm happy with my specs, just not my cable management, if I could do something to sort that I would be in the yes camp.
