Who "NEEDS" a new PC?? I'm an electronics engineer and audio engineer with diplomas in both, refurbishing is what I do most.. You don't need NEW parts. E-Waste is a real problem

 

This is a huge reason why I like to buy refurbished P-Series ThinkPads. I've got both a P50 (my wife's computer) and a P52 (my computer) that are more then sufficient for our daily needs.

I have about 70 SFF business PCs 2nd gen thru 7th gen Intel all with their original proprietary PSUs running just fine 24/7 under full load (like 40% PSU load) for BOINC. Probably with original hard drives, many with 40K + hours of on time, a few with over 80K. No need to replace that PSU really at that age. I'd say it's in it's sweet spot of the bell curve. Just about the fan seize up. Though on 1 of my 3rd gen boxes the PSU fan has been seized since around the beginning of the year and it hasn't smoked yet. 

Yup, 6th gen Intel has NVME built-in on business PCs mobos.
