CPUs
I have never, ever, heard that the CPU in a computer broke. Not even with overclocking. If something breaks, it's the motherboard. Especially when talking about laptops.

Cases. I have a Ryzen 2700X and Vega 56 in a case that once housed Pentium 4 and FX5700. No real reason to upgrade it.

RAM sticks? I’ve never heard of them actually dying.

Good ones are indestructible. My small home server has a PCU which was bought in 2006.
Why?

Based. I'm still using this.

my dad bought a 2nd hand 2012 macbook for an absurd price because he 'cant figure out windows' even though he is just as tech iliterate with macos
what a garbage pile

I have E6320 on a shelf. I winder if it's still works.

>usb cables are trash and lasts few months to year
How? I have cables I've had for 10 years now that still work fine.

For me, GTX 780 from Asus

The bulbs in my first LCD monitor burned out recently, after ~15 years of daily use.

He's a fucking retard that doesn't know how to use a cable properly.

mid 2012 retina still doing alright
gonna be sad when I have to get rid of it because I'm definitely not getting any of the new MBPs

I've had a PSU blow up on me before. It was a cheap chink one. I was testing out my new GPU, guess I pushed it too hard and the PSU suddenly started arcing and smoking.

I had an Enermax Galaxy (back from when they were top end) blow up, then it's replacement a Corsair HX1000. The Corsair's warranty replacement is still going strong.

Fortunately neither took anything out with them.

I’ve never had a single part fail on me except mechanical hard drives. Computer parts last forever.

It's rare for PSUs to kill other components, they're designed to effectively self-destruct if anything goes wrong. But they can self-destruct catastrophically and burn down your house if you buy a cheap one like I did.

My Corsair 650 W under-voltaged without me noticing for several months until it finally started shutting down the entire PC. Over that time it apparently slowly raped my GTX 770 until it was destroyed. Had to replace both the GPU and the PSU in the end.

oh and it lasted about 4,5 years, right when the warranty was over, as expected.

I received my warranty replacement Corsair HX1000 on 28 Jan 2011 and it's still going strong.

I knew it had been a while!

Best cpu i ever haf

who makes the best programming socks in larger sizes? i have us 12 feet so normal socks always suck

>Swans
I hope gira never sees this pick.

underrated

Shit's already broken on my case though.

Dude, you're not supposed to bend your cable 90 degrees every time you use it

dude it doesnt matter its metal it increases the conductivity because it excites the electrons into a loop

>lasts few months to year
If you're lucky. Had a guitar lead break in hours once while another guitar lead I had lasted nearly 5 years until a few weeks ago (I honestly felt sad about that too.. like a part of my life just broke)

Cables are insulated for a reason user.

they tend to last until 40% of their lifetime

So you're saying you should spend $1000 on audiophile grade cables and they will hopefully last 10+ years?

No, just take better care of them. Cables are a bit of a gamble due to the length of the surface area that can be broken, the type of use they suffer and the amount of times people break them through accident.

Enermax mainly makes server PSUs they know how to make PSUs fail gracefully.

Ram dies all the time

You meme but I have a heater right next to my legs. I pair of long socks would be a quality of life upgrade

it lasts but it doesnt mean i keep them

sold most of my stuff second hand to get better cool shit

>enjoy your 5 dead pixels

rip, i feel you

the only things that died in my personal devices were ram sticks

Tfw core 2 duo is still more than normies need

>2000$ build
>50$ case
Why people do this? Don't they see that they will never upgrade their cases later on because they'd have to disassemble and rebuild their setup and get rid of their old case. Cases are also the only external sign of quality of your pc thst you will have to look at and touch for over 10 years.

Buy once, cry once.

CPU coolers are other thing where it's dumb to save 10-20 dollars because upgrading them later means you have to scrape the dry paste off the cpu and replacing the fan is already more than the difference between a basic 212 and Noctua.

Is it worth to replace a Corsair PSU from 2010 before it turns 10 years? When you put in perspective 80 bucks isn't much every 10 years.

Same age GPU broke a while ago, could it be the PSU?

I set up a 11 year old XPS with a Q6600 as a living room PC with Win10 and an SSD
That PC is truly going to die before it ever becomes obsolete for it's use
If it ever does die your only looking at $25 max maybe for any part that fails

My q6600 build died when the niggabyte motherboard died and took the CPU with it back in the day. Nothing lasts forever user

I bought a Pentium II HP desktop off some guy on craigslist for about $7 and it still works fine. Not sure about it's total power on hours though.

I have a model m keyboard from 30 years ago that works

I expect it to die, I don't see it ever becoming truly obsolete before then
If it does give up a motherboard is $20-25 last time I checked for the model of XPS I have, a Q6600 is $9 and I have spare PSUs around
