I was wondering when people consider themselves to have a new PC. Technically I've had the same PC for close to 20 years now, but every part's been upgraded several times over.

I figure everyone's got a different mind about it. For me, I'd have to say when all of the big three—CPU, GPU, mobo—have completed a phase, my brain thinks of the previous setup as "the old PC".

I don't. I build new every time. previous PC was 1080Ti Ryzen 1700 16GB, current one is 9070XT 9850X3D 64GB. There's something about being able to build a new PC while knowing you have a fallback ready.
