Since the minimum and recommended specs for Starfield have come out, I've been budgeting to do a big upgrade on my PC with an AMD 6800 xt and a fancy new 1 TB SSD (which is the first game I've ever seen that requires an SSD) just so I can run the game in all it's space epicness.

What was the game that you were so excited for that you made the jump to upgrade your PC to the next gen of hardware? New or old!

I upgraded because my previous PC was a dead end. It was a retrofitted XPS workstation I got from my father - I had slotted a SATA SSD and a somewhat improved GPU, but I couldn't push it much further due to the proprietary PSU form factor. There weren't even extra PCIe slots, which became a huge issue when I switched off Windows and wanted to get an Intel Wifi/BT card.
