The 5800X isn't ideal, and we lack details on next-gen thermal performance for deciding a cooler upgrade. However, proceed with upgrading the cooler concurrently with the CPU to determine the required cooling capacity.

I truly intended to try out a Corsair AIO.

Consider upgrading the AIO alongside the CPU and motherboard. The Ryzen 7000 rumors suggest it could perform well, though we should wait 2-3 months before confirming. It makes sense to hold off if your current setup is limiting you. Upgrading the cooler at the same time will boost cooling capacity for that chip when you purchase it, making the timing even better.

However, the Ryzen 7000 series doesn't support DDR4, while the upcoming Intel chips may offer a better alternative—perhaps moving to Intel instead.

It varies by PSU model. 650W works well with your current setup and could be enough for a CPU upgrade. An 80+ Bronze rating doesn’t indicate PSU quality, just its efficiency level. If it’s solid, it should handle the load, but if it’s near overheating risks, consider upgrading first. Intel performs well. The 12th generation is quite powerful, and I’ve assembled several systems using it for friends. I’m eager to see how the 13th gen AM5 will perform. If you’re keeping your RAM plans, 13th gen would still be a solid choice.

You're looking to improve your current setup because everything is fairly new and still meets basic needs.

this psi is the model you linked: CP-9020211-NA from Corsair.

Your PC occasionally freezes while playing games, and you notice others with better setups. You're planning to keep improving your system over the next couple of years, especially around your birthday.

That option isn't ideal. It could work with a CPU upgrade, but I’d likely save up and replace it together with your next significant hardware upgrade.
