Silicon is a nonmetallic element and by itself is not an electronic computer piece.
Extrapolation leads to: Being composed of doped silicon circuits, the vast majority of "electronic computer pieces" do not wear out (especially not in 3-5 years)...

Your assertion is overly general and quite misleading to the public. The only components that wear out are those with moving parts, like fans and hard drives, or those with destructive chemical structure, like NAND flash cells.
