I've got ten year parts in two machines but I got a weird blessing in disguise when my old DDR4 mobo died a couple years ago and forced me to go full DDR5, new CPU and so on. I was upset then, not so much now.
You just never know when a bad thing ends up being a good thing.
My AC has a tendency to drool indoors when a hose gets clogged up. I wasn't aware of the mold it was causing to grow under my bed and on some walls, because I live in a confined space.
The problems with my DDR4 machine gave me some free time to do assorted homekeeping tasks, and the discovery of my bed's infection was a blessing. I now got the mold cleaned away and disinfected, also moving to a bed that doesn't get rained upon. Quite honestly, sleeping under droplets of water and having exactly half of my body damp is an experience that I wish on no one else.
So...yeah, the technical issues with my PC aren't a genuine drawback, longterm.
