You don't need a new machine as long as it runs whatever you want fast enough. More important is keeping up with operating system updates and patches, especially if you run windows. Format your drive and reinstall everything from scratch every 6 months to a year - windows tends to get "crufty" with normal long term use, and is measurably faster with a fresh install on the exact same machine.
