When do you next plan to upgrade your Desktop PC?
A: I will most likely upgrade my machine in 5 years or so. I would consider building another rig sooner if I gain the financial ability to do so.

What do you look for when selecting a processor upgrade?
A: I look at performance as the most important thing in upgrading a processor. The cost vs the performance also has some say in the matter as well.
