my 2012 rig just got all the ram it can address, a 3060, an NVMe ssd because that was a very expensive thing I never did in the first place that is super cheap now and a massive performance boost, a mellanox card, and I’m looking at CPUs but honestly it was the one thing I didn’t cheap on in the first place so still perfectly good.

I reckon she’s got another decade in her at least, unless consumer grade quantum happens in that time.
