When do you upgrade? When your existing computer cannot do or is too slow at running the software that you need it to run. Also, pretty obviously, when it breaks and its not cost effective to put your hard earned cash into repairing your computer. Usually, because its technology is three to five generations old or replacement parts are impossible to find or ridiculously expensive.
