I have 1 TB internal, 1 TB external, 500 GB internal, 80 GB internal (2 dead 150 GB internals).
I have definitely got the upgrade bug.
My pc hasn't been upgraded in ages. So if I wanted to play FFXIV on 9/22, I'd have to buy minimum cpu, mobo, RAM and video card. I've been wanting to upgrade to SSD and win 7, quad or six core, etc., anyways. The way life has converged, odds are I won't be upgrading until a year or two from now, as originally considered. I probably won't play FFXIV, even on PS3. Still, the upgrade bug has bitten me.
I wonder MSI Big Bang Xpower 1366 (which would require PSU upgrade) or Asus Rampage III Gene (which I don't want red & mATX in ATX case feels wasteful ). Over $300 for the big rampage or dual cpu SLI is out of the question.
Of course, next year's intel is going to start new platforms and there's always the bulldozer question.
New tech is old tech, when it first releases. The problem is when the applications you need/want to run, require new hardware or just if you've hit some kind of ceiling with existing hardware.
