Heh... I started building in the late-90's with a custom 486-sx. Went from that to a Pentium 100, then to an AMD-K6-II at 233, then to another AMD I forget... then to an i5-2500K in 2011. That build hit the sweet spot, and with just graphics card, memory and drive upgrades stayed roughly the same until I bought this -7-10700K last year... that's now got 4Tb of nVME and 8tb of SSD, no spinning rust, and a 3070. I would like to upgrade the graphics card as I've got 2x 4K monitors and gaming is a bit sluggish at times on 4K, but... I just can't justify the upgrade price to a graphics card that could improve. So, I'll wait another gen, and probably get either a 4080 when the 5x series is out, or wait until the 5x series 5070-eqivalent is at a reasonable price. Other than increasing storage, I don't see any other demands for CPU or GPU coming this console generation...
