How long would this PC last?

[OriginalPromise]

I bought this about 4 months ago, and it handles tasks very well; with the hard drive being shit so I'm planning to add an additional SSD. For student work and moderate to heavy gaming, how long do you think this would last? By heavy, I mean games like Watch Dogs, and Titanfall. This handles games like Vanilla minecraft at 180? Fps and CoD MW 3 on full settings at 1080p around 90fps. I'm planning to upgrade in about 2-4 years.

It's not even a Haswell... It would last maybe 5 years.

For gaming, maybe another year. It would not do heavy gaming.

 

For general tasks, 5+ years. For the money you may as well do a strong $1000 ITX machine with a touchscreen monitor. It will take up more space, but will perform a lot better.

For general use it would last for a long time, but you have to upgrade in a few years (about 3?) to retain the same detail levels will be my guess.

Yea you should be just fine if you're upgrading in 2-4 years. You'll probably end up having to play at lower settings/resolutions on new triple A titles in the next few years.

I think it can last for the 4 years you plan.

For gaming maybe 1.5 year for other work year of 4.

If you don't mind low graphics in games, 2-3 years before GPU need to be upgraded. CPU should be ok for 4+ years.

7850m?

 

I would probably just look to sell it and build a new PC.... That card is equal to a 750m

 

here is an example of its performance http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GT-750M.90245.0.html

 

It can barely play any AAA games at 1080p Medium settings

 

For minecraft/light gaming it will last some time... but if you plan to play watch dogs etc I do not think you will have a great time

I did expect to experience some graphical downgrades, since I was worried about the GPU since it came on my doorstep. It's something I traded for the minimalistic design, beautiful enough for me to cash in $1,300 for that. If it lasts about 4 years, I'm completely fine, since it runs productivity applications with ease, and that's the important thing. My next PC would definitely be a custom built one, unless Samsung can bring something more goregous. This thing looks like it's floating in person.

For gaming, maybe another year. It would not do heavy gaming.

And easier to upgrade or replace parts

If you're planning to stick the games your currently playing, then it's fine, but in terms of being able to play new big titles, I would say it may last a year.  In terms of everything else, it will last 4-5 years.
