Our first family PC was an IBM desktop in the mid-90's. 486 66 MHz, I think it was, and a 80 MB harddrive. Don't remember much of the specs., but I do remember we had it upgraded from 4 to 8 MB RAM, and from Windows 3.11 to Windows 95. We still have the PC, just for fun. It still works too.
Been building my own PC's since around 2007, and I don't touch prebuilds with a 10-foot pole. I'm very particular about my PC components, and I can never get the exact ones I want with any prebuilt.
Current PC (to keep it short) is an Asus Z490 XII Hero, Intel i9 10900K 5,0 GHz all-core overlocked and undervolted, Gigabyte RTX 3080 Aorus Xtreme, Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3200 MHz 64 GB, Corsair HX1200 PSU...and an Asus Xonar Essence STX sound card. Current case is a Be Quiet 802, with glass panels on both sides (yes, I also cable manage the back).
5 TB of SSD storage, 6 TB of HDD storage. Plus another 82 TB of HDD storage in my home server. And another 11 TB of external HDD storage. Got a 10 Gbit in-house LAN (TP-Link TL-SX1008, 2x Asus XG-C100C), and a separate UPS on both machines, plus a third UPS on the main network gear.
I enjoy watching movies (hence all the storage space), so I got a 1100 Watt 2.1 speaker setup, with a 250 Watt active subwoofer, a Yamaha R-S700 amp and a Sony Bravia XR-55X90 TV.
No need to replace something that works. <3
-----------------
Desk is custom. Designed and made it myself. 3x 30mm birch kitchen tops side by side, measuring a total of 195x165 cm of desk space.
Frame is all 2"x4", with 4"x4" legs. I can walk on top of it, and it doesn't even creak.

Of course! That's what I still use on my current PC. Along with Easy CD/DA Extractor and Media Player Classic.Remember Winamp?
