So, I've had my current PC around 8 years, but its getting noisy and starting to take a while to boot up.
It gets used for:
- Web surfing
- Word docs
- Powerpoint
- Excel
- Storing photos (but backed up on an external drive plus Google photos)

I'm sure I don't need to spend a fortune to get the above, might be nice to edit some video on occasion (I use MovieMaker normally so nothing crazy!) and it will need a few USB ports.
Current spec is attached in the image below and it has 500GB storage.



I like using a proper keyboard and a monitor when at home, but would take a laptop (and just hook it up at home) if that's a better option over a desktop.
What sort of price/models am I looking at to replace what I have please?

Many thanks
Matt

Only down side of buying components is that I have no idea how to implement them in the current system nor how to amend the start up settings etc.
