    What do you need it for is a good question.

    Mainly browsing the internet. Watching netflix and other 1080p+ resolution movies. Many apps open at once (RuneScape, Eclipse, Spotify, iTunes, etc...)

    If you watch movies on netflix and don't require much hard drive space then you should perhaps switch to an SSD, also, you could do with a new graphics card but besides from that the rest of your PC is rather adequate.

    I'm really just tired of my fans coming on. I know I need a new cooling system as I don't have any real one tbh. And I was just trying to figure out what was severely outdated.

    Use a Watercooler, Corsair H100 feels good.
