With an initial config on am4, I left it untouched (except from watercooling because the shit is fun) for 7 years, with a ryzen 7 5700x3d and doubling the RAM capacity (16Go to 32Go). The new ryzen died and I got a ryzen 9 5950x, I paired it with a rx 9070xt and a ventirad, and now I hope it can last for a decade. I don't even play modern demanding games (most recent on the list would be cyberpunk 2077)
