The only hardware upgrade I will see myself making in the foreseeable future is changing out my 3600 for a 5700x3d solely so I can keep my current AM4 mobo for as long as I can.

With parts being hella expensive and my 3060ti still going strong, I don’t see why I shouldn’t just keep what I have until they either die or break.

Same I got a 3080 in 2021 when they finally hit $900 which was still too much, and last month went from a 5600X to 5600X3D for an extra 20% performance for $200. Now don't have to upgrade for another 2 years or so
