Upgrade package

Every few years I upgrade all of our hardware. Some things I wait some time to upgrade.
For our PCs usually a few years I upgrade GPUs, and lower end CPUs we might have. For example Yogita crappy AMD fx 4100. Well, it wasn't that bad...Nah it sucked. For example, it barely outperforms the second gen i3. The i3 was a dual core CPU, with the fx-4300 being a quad core!

We, l Yogita has a whole new rig. Her CPU is the same as mine an i7 3770. GPU is a very nice ati HD 7970. Actually, it is not as good as her other card a gtx 760 but I will keep the ati card in her system to see how it performs. The PSU is a very nice Corsair model. There are two nice things about her set up. First, it uses an SSD with the operating system installed on it. Second is the i7 CPU. I should mention that her case is MUCH easier to transport. Upgrading her pc or swapping out parts is easy..the hard work was already done with the wiring!

I now have an iPad pro first gen. I am so glad I waited years to upgrade. This thing is sweet. large vibrant display, super fast. It feels like a sexy machine...cause it is! Next iPad upgrade I think I am good for a few years. The boys now have a gaming rig as well. It is a dual core intel cpu, it came out just before the i series CPUs came out. It performs very well. It too is a micro tower making it very easy to transport.

Next upgrade coming early next year....our smartphones!
