Max out your RAM and fit an SSD for the main OS. Not too costly but will reward you in spades. No need to upgrade the OS.

The RAM is maxed. I think it is better to go for a new and faster pc, perhaps a i5 or i7

Re: What kind of computer are you using?
My home PC is pretty old now - Core 2 Duo, 8Gb RAM. Upgraded it with an SSD a couple of years back - the best upgrade you can ever make!
Getting itchy feet now and thinking of building a new machine - AMD Ryzen 1600 (or maybe 2600 when it comes out) 16Gb RAM, M.2 SSD plus a 1TB spinning drive. Nice!

Re: What kind of computer are you using?
i7 - 4770k, 16gb Ram, 14TB Hard drives, 2 x 250gb SSDs, GTX 1080, Win 7.
I doubt I'll be upgrading anything for a while as the lack of PC games these days is quite a factor. Mainly use the PC for TV out to AV which works very well.

Re: What kind of computer are you using?
Intel i5-3570K 3.40Ghz overclocked to 4.7Ghz
16GB RAM
Win 10 Home 64bit
250GB Samsung SSD for OS and games
2TB hard drive
Nvidia GeForce GTX 670 2GB
2 x 24" monitors
It's about 5 years old, but does what I need it to do - I might add another SSD for games and change the graphics card for a 1070, but not just yet.
