Are you buying new or used hardware in 2026?

Between GPU pricing, SSD costs and RAM prices moving around lately, I'm curious how people are approaching upgrades.


Are you mostly buying new, shopping used, or just holding onto your current hardware longer?


Has your upgrade strategy changed compared to a few years ago?
 
Always new. I'm so tempted to get the Asus X870e Glacial and a 9950x3d2. But I need it like I need another hole in the head.

I just havent upgraded. No desire to with current prices. Still running a 5800x3d. I'd probably shop the used market if I was building for one of my kids or a friend.
 
Holding on my 5900x and 7800XT, I don't run any recent games to be honest.

I went sideways and installed CachyOS on a 2nd nvme to test the game optimised os.

Very happy with it, and it ran Doom Eternal without any problems from steam.
