I always stay a few generations back and generally purchase that tech either used or new old stock. My current system is more than enough for anything thrown at it today and it even plays games half way decent given the generation of video card I use. About every 5 to 7 years I upgrade the motherboard, CPU, and RAM with older generation parts, but they feel "new" to me.
Why pay a premium for a PC which will be obsolete in two years?
