World's Biggest Upgrade?

[samocamo123]

I am upgrading from a 7870 blower style to an r9 fury nitro oc. I am also upgrading from a shitty emerson 720p 32 inch to a nice lg ultrawide 1080p 29 in freesync monitor. Isn't this like the biggest upgrade ever? It won't be here until around Christmas but i'll update the thread soon after getting them, and share the improvement.

HDD to SSD.

WiFi to Ethernet.

I once upgraded from an Athlon 64 3200+ with 2GB of RAM and Radeon X800 XL to an i5 2500k with 8GB of RAM and Radeon HD 6850.  ...Now there's an upgrade.

I just recently upgraded from a 965 Black Edition and an EAH 5850 to an i7-6700 and a GTX 1080.

 

The fact that AshleyAshes was still using an Athlon 64 3200+ in 2010/2011 tho...  I thought my recent upgrade from 7 year old hardware was a big leap, but an Athlon to i5?  That is some dedication right there.

I went from an old PC sporting an i3-530, 4GB RAM (unsure on speed) + GTX 260 straight to a i7-6700k, 16GB 3000MHz + 980ti Xtreme Gaming.... Night and day difference.

once I upgraded nothing to a i7 4970k and titan x

I'd just wait for Vega at this stage tbh.

Psh. I once upgraded from an old i3, no dedicated graphics, and 4GB of RAM, to an i7 4790K, dual R9 290s and 16GB of RAM. 720p to 1440p. And also, to an SSD. 

 

Man, that felt amazing...
