The PC you're enjoying so much at the moment will end up in the dumpster one day

You could easily get like 50 bucks for your pic related just because it has a 5.25" drive.

In 10 years it won't be even able to decode (in real time) common (at the time) codecs your animu and porn are encoded in.

Even matter decays. The ultimate end is infinite nothing.

That's why I went for mITX AMD build. I will just swap out CPU for the last gen that fits AM4 in 2020-2022 and when it is surpassed by drastically faster CPU's (and that probably wouldn't happen unless quantum computing becomes common or fabs switch to a different kind of semiconductors) just throw in a dirt cheap AM4 CPU with in-built graphics and use it as HTPC.

And the dinner I enjoy so much is going to be shit tomorrow. What's your point?

I use a ThinkPad. It's not going anywhere

I don't have an emotional connection to things like a consumer that is easy prey for soulless capitalists

And even then, it will still be able to read doujinshi

And? It's just a machine, it's easily replaceable.

I've been using the same steel full tower case for like 20 years now.

Fuck the police.

mabe that is why we are here. to produce all those processed metals that earth was not directly able to produce in a large scale. its all part of the natural plan (or god if you believe in it).

>will end up in the dumpster
Not if I can help it!

not true.

I used a core2duo overclocked to 4.5ghz from 2008-2017 I still have it and its on a 19x17 motherboard and im going to put it into a 8L case and use it as my hifi computer until it literally dies which might be 30-40years.

i still have a graphics card from 2011 that gets 80+fps in BF1 but its unused atm

graphics cards and stuff go in the trash but if you know what you are doing with hardware and buy small motherboards then cpu/ram/mobo/psu can last like multiple decades after its first decade of actual use is done with.

learn not to be wasteful .

>Not if I can help it!
by now you should know that it can't be helped

you need to go back

yeah and you, me, and all our loved ones will all be in the fucking ground someday too.

damn right, this is a consumerist board not a technology board

advanced airgap tool?

I regret dumping my Celeron 300 with a savage 4GT and 192Mb of sdram

>not building it yourself and making it your own
>not complimenting it with a riced gnu/Linux install

you just gotta change things up to fall in love again

fuck, I want a 5inch floppy drive somuch, or box with it.

>gnu/
don't

well closest im willing to go back is to get a 7350k and overclock it to like 5.5ghz or some thing crazy.

that's the last best 2core processor intel will ever make I think. I might do that. only reason to use more than 2cores is for shitty Ubisoft games that are programmed badly there isn't actually any "multicore" games just Ubisoft ones that are made like shit.

You are mistaking it for a console, on a PC you can gradually upgrade the CPU, motherboard, RAM, SSD, case, etc., to the point it is 100% different from what you started with and yet be the "same" one, it will never be in the dumpster

>learn not to be wasteful
Nigger you were dumping electricity into an overclocked core2 duo in 2017, I don't want to hear lessons about waste from someone who doesn't understand TCO.

Where are you located? I have plenty for sale, 360k and 1.2MB.
NIB old stock DD and HD 5.25" floppies too.

I switched it to a sub m-atx board that had advanced energy saving shit around 2011 its a weird size like 17cm by 19cm like basically ITX but not also supports ddr3/2 which is kinda cool.

using 20% more power than some thing modern a year way better for the enviroment than throwing out motherboards and ram and cpus every 3years. you dumb fat americans even throw out PSU and case that often beacuse you cant be fucked unscrewing things.

It makes no difference if you throw out your entire computer or gradually part by part. Parts left behind from a gradual upgrade aren't exactly dumpster material yet either.

>PC you can gradually upgrade the CPU, motherboard, RAM
You get to replace all of those at the same time because of Intel. AMD is doing ok, but the upgrades aren't exactly worthwhile, unless you must have 5% more performance. But those "slightly" old processors aren't exactly obsolete if all need to do is replace is the CPU or add some more RAM.

Not him but what kind of third world country do you live in where the power consumption of a computer matters?

if you pick a good intel cpu that can overclock high it can last you a decade gaming at 60+fps or even higher.

if you get a high clocked intel now and overclock it it will last even longer than the stuff in the last 10years imo 7xxxk 8xxxk and 9xxxk at 5-5.5ghz (yes 8/9 series can reach 5.5-5.7ghz on water/best air) will literally last you like 15-20years gaming.

things have slowed down.

top end GPUs can last like 8years which is interesting beacuse AMD stop supporting new drivers after about 4-5years while Nvidia keep giving you new ones for 15 years so if you are buying a high end GPU or even midrange dont buy AMD.

there are so many dumb people on the internet that buy entire new gaming rig every 3years it makes me weep. beacuse they cant be fucked formating windows and fixing their software thats slowing them down or working out what is wrong with it.

its very sad but thats fat america for you. they literally thow out entire pcs before they really need to upgrade.and convince them self it sworth it beacuse they have 0iq skill with managing windows or formatting.

Don't get all your information on Americans from television, streamers and Jow Forums. Most Americans are on the "get a new phone every two years" cycle but that will slow down, it's already happening. Most Americans use computers that are several years old. I've had to argue with people that yes, your computer was top of the line... in 2005, you need to replace the poor thing. Clunkers with 1GB memory, a celeron, and a hard drive with transfer rates you could swear are in the kB/s range, are fairly common. People use them for their online banking and card games. Most people are not MLG #yolo Twitch sœboys.

He's talking about waste. The energy diff to run an old overclocked processor for a year will burn more hydrocarbons than making and delivering a new one would. (by this point a 2500/2600 i7 is the oldest CPU I'd use for this reason) Manufacturing is absurdly efficient.

If you want to spend time and effort on overclocking I guess. And don't mind the potential for early failure.

And as mentioned. Overclocked CPUs can be very energy inefficient. Especially when you consider the real gains over stock voltage at max turbo. Stock is often fine for most things, and another few 100 MHz just isn't enough to make a CPU last much longer. I gew tired of running my system over night with stress tests to make sure my overclock was stable. Grew tired of having to dial down the overclock every time something crashed. I had an Athlon XP 2500+ back then. Overclocking was fun, but not something I care about wasting my time with anymore. I rather just have a 5% slower but stable computer.

So you are just proving my point, a pc won't be in the dumpter unless you are a consumerist faggot

There is no difference between placing a CPU, motherboard, RAM, case, PSU, HDD in a dumpster, and throwing your entire PC in there. It takes a long time for current desktop PCs to be obsolete, but one the PC and its parts are obsolete, they will end up in a dumpster.

>moving goalposts
That's exactly the difference retard, that you don't throw it all at once, it's not like a car, or a toy, an apple product, or a console. You don't take everything and just dump it by any practical means

The goalpost is the same you retard. If the computer is obsolete, throw it out. If the part is obsolete, throw it out. If you can upgrade to another LGA1151 or AM4 CPU, and you're fine with the performance of the new one, your old CPU or entire computer is not yet obsolete and does not belong in any kind of dumpster. You'd be better of just keeping your money and not upgrading at all. Consumerism isn't why something should be in the dumpster, being obsolete is.

If you do a meaningful upgrade, you will at least replace the CPU, RAM, and motherboard due to new socket and different RAM.

in other news water is wet and someday it will evaporate

I have the same PC case from 2004. 7nm parts won't be improved on too much since at 5nm you get quantum tunneling, so my Ryzen 3700x will last me at least a decade because I don't overclock, use a UPS for constant stable power, and use good cooling. anything past DDR4 is a placebo meme that would matter only to people whose livelihood depend on multithreaded workload for hours a day. SSD should last me a decade. GPU power past 4K60fps doesn't matter to me, so the next Navi should be more than enough.
My current PC parts will probably end up as an HTPC. I predict all my shit to last me at least two decades. Of course I will die eventually and the parts will eventually die but that is irrelevant.

Aside from not having CUDA I really have no reason to upgrade this thing anytime soon. If the CPU goes I'll get a whole new machine, I guess.

>If the computer is obsolete, throw it out
By your logic
>If the CPU is obsolete throw everything out
>If the GPU is obsolete throw everything out
>If the HDD is obsolete, don't get an SSD, throw everything out
It's amazing how retarded you are. You don't throw "the (whole) computer" because something is obsolete, you replace just that, and that's why
>The PC you're enjoying so much at the moment will end up in the dumpster one day
Is a very stupid thing to say, because the CPU, RAM, GPU, SSD by themselves are not "The PC". Everything put together IS "The PC", and you don't throw out "everything" just because something becomes obsolete.

>You'd be better of just keeping your money and not upgrading at all
That's your opinion, it doesn't prove you can't change 1 or 2 parts and give it new life

A PC is a tool.
You enjoy what you do with it, not the machine itself.

When the CPU is obsolete, the motherboard is too, and probably the RAM. It's been 10+ years since we had LGA775. You're no longer seeing people upgrade from some Pentium D to a C2Q on the same motherboard and same set of RAM. You get minor upgrades on the same LGA1151 and AM4 motherboards.

Changing a part or two is not new life on current platforms. it is a couple hundred MHz more at best. The gains hardly matters at all.

you can always dig up a 486 PC, it is unusable as a tool so you need to think of it as something else

No it's getting repurposed as a server because sata 3.

>When the CPU is obsolete, the motherboard is too, and probably the RAM
That is your opinion. When something starts to become obsolete or performs worse than you'd expect, you can upgrade just that, you don't have to wait until EVERYTHING becomes obsolete to throw it out and cash $1500 on new hardware, throwing the old one in the bin.
>You're no longer seeing people upgrade from some Pentium D to a C2Q on the same motherboard and same set of RAM
No, because reasonable people upgrade their hardware gradually, they may even change the platform, but that doesn't mean to throw out everything at once, it means the PSU, case, card/disc reader, NIC, etc. won't just become obsolete, you'd just be dumping the 3 main components but not "The PC" as the OP implies.
Also, you said
>There is no difference between placing a CPU, motherboard, RAM, case, PSU, HDD in a dumpster, and throwing your entire PC in there
And
>If the computer is obsolete, throw it out
You are (retardedly) assuming the whole computer consists on just CPU, RAM and a Motherboard. It doesn't. What you refer to as "The PC" is just the platform.

This, PSUs have changed so little, a high end unit you bought 8 years ago is still fine to use if the caps haven't burst.

How is it opinion? If you have a 1700x, upgrading to a 2700x isn't going to make a huge difference. If the 1700x is obsolete, changes are the 2700x is too, and a newer system that would be a significant upgrade would also require a new motherboard and probably new RAM too. You get to keep your old storage, PSU and case. Not much else. There is no gradual upgrade with current systems. It is your CPU, motherboard, and RAM, all in one go. If you bought one of the better LGA775 motherboards at the time with a Pentium D, upgrading to one of the later C2D or C2Q CPUs (if compatible) was much more than just gradual. The performance difference is like night and day. All with the same motherboard and RAM.

The three main components pretty much is the PC tho. The defining component of a PC definitely is not the case or your storage.

Again, that's your opinion. If someone decides to just stay with the same hardware for 20 years OF COURSE everything will be obsolete. If someone decides to upgrade something now and then, THE WHOLE PC will never be obsolete. You are retardedly assuming the whole PC just consists on 3 parts and nothing more, also
>The defining component of a PC definitely is not the case or your storage.
That's your opinion, the case of the storage IS the defining component on MANY builds for MANY people. Go back to /v/ retard.

>if the caps haven't burst.
which they will do at some point.
being cheap on the PSU is foolish.

dude nihilism lol

lol

My PC is a dumpster.

The problem with realistic "upgrading" is that when you want a new CPU, you basically have to replace 2/3rd of the computer, at which point you might as well build a completely new one and just use the old thing for something else, like streaming tranny porn.

>new CPU
nothing from intel qualifies as new after 4th gen

let's be honest here
the pc i'm using at the moment should have been in the dumpster 2 years ago

also
>dumpster
i don't live in the quarantine zones for poor people

You can gift your old things to people who need them.

From the dumpster came many of my computers. They will go home someday, and better machines will lie in wait for my love.

How exactly could you go to nothing if you never were created from nothing?

We always were and always will be you lame blackpilled freak.

depends on many factors.
>when it was produced
>who actually manufactured it (corsair is just a name, they have many suppliers)
>how long it ran already
>how often a day it got turned on and off
>how clean your wall poweroutlet output is
>how much load you put on it (a PSU generally lasts a ton longer if you don't stress it. if you only used a fraction of the 750 chances are it will work a very very long time)

>tfw i just upgrade parts and sell the used ones to my friends
Unless it's a none-functioning part it gets a second life as a hand me down. When i upgrade i buy top parts so they last and are still useful instead of being some cheap piece of shit no one will use after a year.

overclocking made sense when performance gains were actually real
only retards overclock these days. same people who get watercooling. lmao

100% agree.

Overclocking mattered back when your processor ran at fucking 800Mhz and you could push it to 1.2Ghz.

Now?

Your shit automagically overclocks itself with turboboost so who cares.
