Not a bad system at all...

This may have been considered as "High End" when it was new but, when it comes to Technology in general, it has approximately approximately a 6 Month life-cycle.

This means that technology, in general, would technically have a newer generation (or two) released approximately 6 months +/- afterwards.

The system you had outlined is a very good one regarding the Processor, RAM and a few others but, so far the only item that sticks out is the size of the Hard Drive.

Nowadays the typical size of a Hard Drive is 1-1 1/2 TB. This is only because of the amount of space needed for software nowadays and even a 1 TB Hard Drive is fairly inexpensive/affordable.

The RAM of 2x8 GB (or 16 GB total) is a very good amount itself.

I hope that I had answered your question okay via text...

Good Luck!
