Does it provide comfort & quality? Newer systems do a better job of controlling temperature and humidity, reducing mold and mildew growth, If someone in your household suffers from allergies, newer models can help with filtering out and keeping the temperatures regulated.
TL;DR If it is no longer economical and eats up a lot of your time, change it. But if it still works and isn't shooting up your electricity bill, nor does it need constant maintenance, keep it.
