I currently am running a LGA 1366 system with the following major components:

EVGA LGA1366 FTW MOBO
I7990X CPU - OC: 4.4 Ghz, Liquid Cooled
Two EVGA GTX 670 FTW's in SLI, running three 24" Dell monitors in surround.
1200W PSU
24 GB Kingston HyperX Beast 2400Mhz Ram (Six 4GB DIMM's)

This rig seems to run everything maxed out just fine, but, how long will this last. Is it time to update?
 
Solution
It's not the time to upgrade anything from your build. This build is meant to execute everything for quite a long time.

No need to upgrade.
If you are happy with it and running everything at maxed out, so there is really no reason to upgrade because it has no problem keeping up with the current demands.

Seriously no need to upgrade.

The right time to upgrade would only be when you start feeling that the rig is unable to keep up with current games. As for now, that build can play anything you throw at it at maxed out. Thanks to 670 SLI.
 


Thanks. I appreciate your input!
