Firstly, I would like to thank anyone who takes time to help answer this question.
I have been recently getting more and more interested in building a computer. I have a very solid computer right now, however. My computer is a two year old Alienware Aurora A3 (I know, I know inb4 Alienware is overpriced, etc., etc.) with the following specs:
16gb ram (I have no idea about the threading and such)
GPU: 1x AMD Radeon HD 6950
CPU: 1x Intel Core i7 2600K
HDD: 2x 500GB Raid 0, 1x 3TB Seagate Baracuda
SDD: 1x 120GB Samsung 840 EVO
MOBO: Alienware 046MHW
I'm sorry if that is not enough information. I am no computer wizard and I am a little lacking when it comes to knowledge on what pieces truly matter.
Like stated previously, I have recently been interested in building a PC, but upon looking into various pieces I noticed that upgrades may not be so easy to find. In anyone's opinion is it better to wait a few more years and wait for my system to get a bit more outdated before building a new one? I would also like to say I have no real problems with my system other than the atrocious dell technical support. That alone is a solid reason to try and get rid of an Alienware computer for a custom-build.
TL;DR --> Is my system worth selling/salvaging and building a new system out of? Is there anything I may need to improve soon/now?
Again, thanks to any and all who answer.
Edit: Thank you all for answering. You all have been very helpful
