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!

Treated myself to an ultrawide and rtx 3070 during the pandemic for Cyberpunk and Battlefield 2042... and for work and study, of course. Cyberpunk was a bit choppy, but I got used to it--thankfully only ever crashed a few times during my playthrough. Played Horizon: Zero Dawn, Apex Legends, Star Wars: Fallen Order, Titanfall 2, and some other games, mostly FPS/shooters (NMS, hunting games)... then it became a glorified Fall Guys machine for a bit until I got a PS5... next upgrade may be when the 4090s come down in price, or whenever 24 GB of video ram is more affordable (I actually could use the extra ram for work-related experiments). Maybe a sidegrade to the steam deck?
