Currently, my system is still working just fine. However, I have heard that mobos die sooner than a CPU does, and while I haven't had any issues with my mobo, the system is getting close to 5 years old. Here's the specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5-3470
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2 (bought and installed in late 2014)
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 970 Superclocked ACX 2.0 (also installed late 2014)
RAM: G.SKILL Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-H77-DS3H LGA 1155
Case: Fractal Design Define R5 Black Window Silent ATX Midtower
I'd be keeping the PSU, GPU, and the case, but I know I'd need to get a new CPU, RAM, and Mobo (as well as a copy of Windows). Should I be worried about my mobo dying any time soon? I typically dust the case out every six months or so.
