I've only technically upgraded twice in my life- First time when I got my first gaming computer, a Dell G7 laptop with i7/1060 MaxQ, and when I upgraded around a month ago to a proper desktop with Ryzen 7700X and Radeon 6700 XT.
For the Dell G7, the first game I remember booting up was Minecraft, since on my old ass laptop before, I couldn't run it without optifine, and even then, it was barely hitting 20 frames. The smooth camera movement was a breath of fresh air.
For the desktop I just got, I had a few choices, since there were games in my steam library that ran pretty poorly on my Dell G7 that I was waiting to play when got an upgrade. Between Days Gone and Cyberpunk 2077, I opted to test out Days Gone first. Still working on beating it, but the performance upgrade still amazes me
