I would agree with the others, if it is working fine for you, then I would not worry about it yet.
One thing that I will add though, that I noticed when my R7000 that I use to have started getting long in the tooth, is that the more devices you have, the more problems that router started having. If you start getting newer devices or adding more, you may notice that the router can't handle it and starts to have issues and drops. When I got around 30 to 35 networked devices, I started noticing issues, which then forced me to upgrade to a newer device.
