if u can AFFORD it, i would say every 2-3 years?
Most of us cant though.
and in answer to your question, i would say YES GET A NEW COMPUTER. If yours is 5 years old now that means its slightly more obsolete then my own which irritates me to no end.
Plus theres plenty of good deals on computers and lappys out there from like dell or something that dont cost too much. Then again if you have a friend whos in the know you could build one from the ground up a bit cheaper then buying like a dell of gateway or something.

If you're happy with the way it performs you never need to upgrade it.
If WoW is running a little sluggish, then it might be a good idea.
Remember, it's your decision. Not ours.

For the love of god, don't buy a laptop.
They are the Gnomes of the computer world, and you
ALL
know what I mean.

I suffer from the three year itch. Every three years or so I make the mistake of looking at what's new in computers. My brother in law and some friends are fairly up on what's what. This usually results in me buying a new computer. The one I have now (bought this year) runs Wow at max settings with 15-20 addons. Although since 3.2 the shadows shudder/stutter which is really annoying.

I've had my computer for 3ish years now and it's starting to show some signs of aging, for example Dalaran is a horrible place, and even Dragonblight with the trees lag me up.
I'd really like to upgrade my comp to make it lag less etc. I don't know that much about computers, but it seems I need a new processor, video card and some RAM. I don't want to buy a new computer yet, because I've seen (and worked with) Vista and how it sucks elephant's private parts. So I guess I need to wait for Windows 7 to arrive before I buy a whole new computer. I've heard that it has had some good previews, better than Vista anyway.

My laptop is on it's last legs, but the problem is that I have no money or a job. So I'm pretty much screwed when my laptop finally bites the dust.
It's only the third computer I've had, but the first I bought with my own money.
