Oh boy. While I haven't got the specific details laid out as it's still a couple years out, here's the idea of what I'm planning on.

Minimum of 24 threads, probably more like 32. At least 64gb ram, probably more like 96gb. At least 12tb of raid 10 hdd space with a couple of ssd's.

Basically what I'm going to be doing with the computer is running a few VMs. 2 for me, 1 for my 'roommate' and maybe a couple others for general stuff.

[NickTHH]

For my entire life I have been using laptops, probably this December or next year I will be building a desktop pc.

 

Uses: Editing & Gaming (YouTube PC), Workstation.

 

This is what I am planning to put in my future build:

CPU: i7 7700K

Video Card: Nvidia Geforce GTX 1080 Reference card 

Case: CoolerMaster Mastercase Pro 5

Motherboard: Asus Z270-AR LGA 1151

SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 500GB

HDD: Seagate BarraCuda 4TB

RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) 3000MHz RAM

PSU: Corsair HX850i 

Cooling: CoolerMaster MasterLiquid 240 Liquid-Cooled Radiator

 

Total Price: Approx. $2000 USD/$68,000 NTD

9700k
1180Ti

32gb 3200 ram
2tb m.2 SSD

35 inch 4k 144hz monitor

i have no plans of updating my current rig. i have no reason to. the first thing would be more storage and then maybe a better GPU when the 1060 starts getting old

[Virus__]

I dunno. I'm still trying to get my hands on a Ncase M1 & a spare side panel so I can mod a piece of tempered glass into it and another M.2 drive, probably a 512GB 960 EVO.

But my system is fine for what I do. I'd also probably move to 1440P, I was eyeing off some nice Dell 27" 1440P IPS monitors earlier this year & then i'd even consider a beefier GPU to drive games at that resolution at higher settings.

[SkyLinx]

I do incremental updates every few months/one year. I've just bought an RX580 and the next upgrade will likely be the CPU only (I've got an i6700K at the moment). I use the PC for development, video editing, virtual machines, gaming.

Do you need all that ram for a few WMs? Wow. I run many VMs at the same time for testing and "only" have 32GB.

Need? probably not 96 but definitely more then 64. I just use a lot of ram. Like I normally idle around 9gb as is.

[Thony]

After experiencinf i7 Im surely sticking with the brand and tier.

 

Im broke and poor AF atm so I plan on upgrading within next 2 yeara to 

 

i7 6core

XX70 tier GPU from Nvidia

buying 1TB ssd

16GB DDR4

 

priority high fps gaming and photo editing. 

 

 

The dream

 

 

[Dethanu]

I'm poor AF as well but since it's Christmas time i guess it's time to upgrade from a LGA775 platform to 1151

 

Intel G4600 3.6GHZ

ASUS PRIME B250M-A

HyperX Fury Black 8GB stick

[DeadlyTitan]

I Currently have a really solid 1440p System so i wont be upgrading for a few years to come by, maybe in 5 ~ 7 years perhaps ? but when i do then i am hoping for something like this. 

 

CPU - 12 cores 24 threads with really good IPC and at least 32 PCIe lanes. (Any Brand)

GPU - Hmm 5080ti or something with similar perfomance? 

Ram - 128 GB 

Storage - Hmm i dunno i really cant gauge this one but i do want to bump up my SSD to 1x 1TB drive + 1x 2 TB Drive

Monitor - 32" 4k 144hz IPS 4MS with G-Sync

 

I use my system for application development, code testing, running VM's and ofc gaming. 

 

[minibois]

It's gonna be basically what I have now, but with a better GPU. Not sure when I'm gonna get another GPU though.

[Drak3]

Next build:

Asrock J4205 ITX

EXGA Supernova 550 G3

16GB DDR3-1333 Corsair ValueSelect RAM

WD Red 4TB HDD

[MostEpic]

My current built:

 

MSI z97 Gaming 7

i7 4790K @ 4.7GHz Air cooled

32GB RAM @ 1800 MHz

GTX 980 Ti @ 1450 MHz

250 GB SSD Boot Drive

1 TB SSD Gaming Storage

4 TB Data Storage + Backup

34" 3440x1440p @ 100 Hz

 

I'm planning to Upgrade CPU and GPU within the next few years.

Maybe a GTX 2080 next year and a Ryzen octacore in 2019 or 2020.

 

The other PC I want to build will be focused on productivity.

Programming (heavily parallel), rendering, graphics design.

At least 32 Threads. Maybe a Threadripper with the Zen2 or Zen3 architecture in 2019 or 2020.

Currently planning on keeping the PC that I have for the next couple of years! 1080 TI and i7 8700k are the main components. However, I do plan on building my girlfriend a PC in the upcoming future, using my last processor (i5 6600k) and an older GTX 960 that I had laying around.

[Donut417]

Im looking at a new build. With about a $2000 budget. But thats also includes a 1440p monitor. Im still not sure on a lot. Been trying to decide if I want to stick with my Fractal Design R4 or go with a Mini ITX build. I know im going to do 16 Gigs of Ram and Im going to be using the Samsung 840 Evo I just bought to replace my failed SSD and Im going to be using the 2 1TB hard disks currently in my machine. Besides that I have no clue yet.

Just bought the parts in Detroit Microcenter...  Now I have to get them back to D.C. Anyway I got an i5-8600k with an H60 cooler, don't intend to OC right away, 16GB of DDR4-3000 Trident Z RGB, ASUS RoG 1070 ti A8G, 500GB Samsung 850 Evo, ASUS RoG Z370-E, Corsair CX650M, all inside a Phanteks P400S case with an RGB and fan controller, in addition to an RGB strip and a tempered glass side panel. I'm quite happy with the result, and it means a lot because it's my first build and I had to work quite a bit to get the money (I'm 14). Also thanks to the LTT community who helped me through part picking and who will hopefully help in the assembly process!

[Hiya!]

I just want to upgrade to Ryzen 7 1700,add more ram and GTX 1080 ti with 144hz G sync IPS monitor.

One day.

When i had a job.

[KyberKylo77]

What ill be able to afford next year around december i7 8700, XX70, 16GB DDR4 and a 1 TB hardrive.

And no, im not poor im just 15 so my only income is from monthly allowances and savings.

[Silentprototipe]

Ohh yes, Ive been wanting to upgrade my old 6 year old A6 3650 build for so long. Rn im just saving up for it, though since my work is seasonal im gonna have to wait for a while. Anyways id get a: 

 

Ryzen 3 1200

EVGA GTX 1050ti FTW/ EVGA 960 SSC (The 960 might be gifted to me so I might have that instead of a 1050ti)

MSI B350 Gaming Pro 

Hyper 212 Evo (AM4 Mount lol)

16 GB of RAM 

256 GB SSD 

1 TB HDD (more than likely ill scrap my 1 TB from my current rig for the new one)

EVGA 450W Bronze PSU 

Idk what case i'll use   

 

 

Other stuff id include 

 

A new chair (Broke mine lol) 

New desk (4 year old desk) 

A Mod Mic (My Corsair Void's are dying so Ill be using my M30X's instead)

Speaker setup (Dunno what ill get in that term but something better than dual JBL Flip 4's)

[it_dont_work]

Honestly? Don't know, but what ever I pick now would probably change by the time I upgrade. Why upgrade my pc when I can buy power tools and engine mods.
