Keeping up with tech is all relevant. With the newer tech they are released and new revisions are issued after faults are found with the existing hardware. I find that keeping with a piece of hardware that has been on the market for 3-6 months and regularly tested by various resources to be the most reliable. I never buy a piece of new hardware until it is reviewed by either Maximum PC or PC gamer, or both. I read their description and their ratings and purchase accordingly from them. I am still running an A8n SLI deluxe with a 3800+ Processor and an ATI radeon 1950 card with 512 ram on the card, 2 gigs of memory and I have no issues with any of the games I am currently playing. New tech is nice but I would rather buy reliable, not saying the new tech isn't reliable but f it hasn't been tested how do you know. It is better to be a settler than a pioneer, the pioneers were scalped. A good general rule of thumb.
