Not I. Still have my 3D TV, and player. Same PC as I had in 2011 ( except all new parts as it kind of blew up last year) My Corsair PSU went and took the board, and GPU with it. Got the PSU and GPU replaced with RMA's but sold both and bought the replacements below.
3930K from 2011
16 GB ram replaced in August (RMA)
Asus X79 Deluxe board (replaced Jan 2015)
EVGA G2 750 PSU (replaced Jan 2015)
Gigabyte 960 (replaced Jan 2015) Since replaced with 1060
1060 6 GB GPU Bought new in October
Intel 530 SSD 240 GB Main drive
Crucial MX 200 SSD 1 TB storage
Not sure when I'm gonna change that.

that's what I think I am going to do from now on for my desktops. I'm going to run an OS, ssd boot drive and run a sata drive for data storage only.

I'd love to do a switch over, but right now there isn't anything out there, and with the Canadian dollar doing so poorly the cost is through the roof.
I should have mentioned that I have the Swiftech 240 water cooler and have the rig running at 4.3
