For what? If you're interested in maxing out games at a high resolution, then you're looking at about zero years. If you're watching Youtube videos and checking you're email, then you can go as long as you want.

Sorry i use it for itunes gaming on High settings. Using a 1680 X 1050

If you keep doing exactly the same stuff you are now, and keep playing the same games at the same settings you will never need to upgrade, if you want to play every new game at highest settings you already need to upgrade. When you need to upgrade really depends on what you want your system to do, its impossible to predict when your system will no longer do what you want it to do as quickly as you would like it to do as we don't know how software will progress, nor do we know what your standards of performance are.

Roughly speaking based on past experience, after about three years you will be dissatisfied with the computer and after five years it will be obsolete.
