I have a computer that's been around for over ten years, and I'm considering a replacement. I don't want something extremely fast or with many advanced features, but I do need several standard ports. I've reached the end of my gaming sessions and don't require top-tier performance or sound quality, so I'm aiming for a mid-range option that's reasonably priced. The ports currently in use are:

USB 2.0:
- Mouse
eSATA / USB 2.0
- Keyboard
- Camera
USB 3.0
- Printer
- Ethernet port
- Display
- Speaker

Hard Drives:
- 250 GB used – 132
- Free – 100
- 1000 GB used – 777
- Free – 153

Recommendations would be appreciated.

Would you like to assemble it yourself?
If yes, where could you purchase the components? Which website or store would you consider?
Where are you located?
You mentioned a 10-year-old PC. You may wish to swap out just the parts other than the drives and possibly the case. Could you be more detailed about which components you're interested in replacing?
Are you interested in RGB lighting? Do you have a preference for AMD or Intel processors? Would you prefer an air-cooled setup?
