Server Lifetime advice needed

Hi all,

 

I am beginning to wonder about the useful lifetime of my server.  I have enjoyed nearly 10 years of service with unraid and about 8 years from my current build.  i want to get ahead of its failure and i am beginning to think of a replacement build.  I just dont know what to expect - how long will this server continue to run trouble free?  I think the only thing to worry about is the motherboard - cpus dont go bad, do they? ram too, right?   hard drive failures are easy to spot and to replace.  same with power supplies.  

 

So, here is my server.  i am about to replace that G620 with an i3-3220 that i have.  otherwise i am going to keep it this way for now.  how long should i expect this motherboard to last?
