desktop is 4 years old, in computer years, is it a fossil?

That's a slick monitor! Congrats. I don't have a Sapphire card either, I meant the Sapphire video fx plugins by GenArts. If your computer is four years old, but still does everything you want it to as fast as you want it to, then it's not a fossil for you! The problem is, hardware is improving so fast, any computer over a year old can be considered obsolete. For example, if I want to get the latest Intel Kaby Lake or AMD Zen processors, I need to get a new motherboard and I will need to be using Windows 10. Even if I am perfectly happy with Windows 7 and it's supported for the next couple years, the hardware forces me to upgrade my OS.
