I'm a little confused here... You want us to tell you how long you have until this computer goes obselete? Well... at the present moment, and, if technology doesn't just upgrade like no other in the next few months, I'd say a couple of years, maye 2-4, depending on advancements... so yeah. If you're asking how long it will take to build the computer, it takes around 1 hour to 2 hours, depending on experience and ease of installation...

Yeah, he want's to know how long he can play the newest games with it. I'd say 2 years or so.

If he keeps that cpu witha nice overclock then it will last for quite some time yet!!!
