I looked because I wasn't really sure. I upgraded late last year. The computer I'm on right now is that upgrade (based around a 5070). Before that, my last build was in 2020, but I didn't upgrade to replace the 2020, I upgraded to add a second computer.

I could have ridden the 2020 for another 2-3 years easy. Matter of fact, looking back prior to 2020, my previous build appears to have been 2011. So yeah, I "upgrade" every 8-9 years.
