@nick I think most of this will depend on what you use it for. My take on that is that for as long as I have a valid OS and the software that I use is supporting the hardware, there is no reason for me to change my computer. I don't worry to much about benchmarks since a difference of a few milliseconds are of no big relevance to me. Again, that is just for me and my use. You may have totally different needs when it comes to the hardware.
