7 years is a long time, especially in computer history. It was one of the first mid-level computers with USB 3.0. Other than NVME and USB C, I haven't seen many fundamental changes. Maybe things are slowing down as it is a lot more functional than a 7-year-old computer back in 2012 would have felt.

I will have to take a look at build-it. Often I do DIY stuff. However, in this case, all I really did was set up my OS and install an old video card. Thanks for the info.
