I've had my PC for about 7 years now and I haven't really upgraded it at all. I can still manage less resource-consuming games on low-medium specs, but it's starting to get very clunky even when just browsing the internet. These are my specs:

CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) X4 840 Quad Core Processor 3.10 GHz
RAM: 10.0 GB
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 630
Motherboard: ASUSTek COMPUTER INC.
PSU: Inter-Tech SL-500A, 500W
OS: Windows 10 Pro
System Type: x64

I think that it might be time for an upgrade to last me another 4-5 years. I don't need anything too crazy, just a setup that I could comfortably use on medium specs maybe for some future games as well. The question I have is: would it be worth it to upgrade my current PC (since this would mean replacing pretty much everything: switch HDD to SSD, CPU, GPU, PSU, more RAM etc.) or just buy a new prebuilt one? If I were to buy a new one, I'd be willing to spend about 700-800 USD. What do you think?
