CheeseMan42 Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I voted yes. I'm generally happy with whatever I put together, but I have been known to upgrade or add things down the line when they go on sale. For example, I was happy with my current computer, but was happier when I put a soundcard in and moved away from onboard sound. I also remember getting the best steppings on both my Opteron 170 and Q6600. Hit 3GHz on both with no voltage change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dihartnell Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I voted no, and I hope I never am. The things I find wrong are the excuses I use to build/upgrade my next rig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ir_cow Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I voted NO.... I have only ever had 1 rig that maybe I was slightly happy with and that was back int he Socket A days with my DFI-LP-B ultra board and rig. Currently since then I have NOT been happy with any rig I have built for myself. even though I have scrutinized over parts they've never really seemed to be the right decisions and the performance has suffered greatly. i'm with you. my XP 2000+ was all i needed for a few years. since than it seems like every time i finish a build it's outdated. heck now i can go up to 64gb of ram...

Black64 Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Yes, until I play a game and the FPS go under 60, then I upgrade, then repeat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedCrazy Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 No, because i have never been able to afford all the bits i need. I have a quite good functioning pc but i have had to cut too many corners to get it. My cooling and case suck, my hdd is too small, my optical drives dead and i cant replace, it my gpus are way too power hungry(and fold too slow). If i could fix all those things then i would be satisfied. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayMeow Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I'm surprised at all the "No" votes. If you weren't satisfied, then you didn't do it right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysion Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) Even though my current rig could be better and I know things that I plan to upgrade dose not mean that I'm not happy with it. I know I could always improve on something. But at the same time I'm happy with what I've got!

dihartnell Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I'm surprised at all the "No" votes. If you weren't satisfied, then you didn't do it right. Did as well as I could afford it not how I wanted it and then something better comes along and my satisfaction levels drop accordingly.
