I need to refresh her PC for better performance. The current build has a mediocre Lenovo MB with an i5 6400 and only 8GB DDR4 RAM. She plays games like World of Tanks and Overwatch, streams, but her LAN card limits uploads by half the available bandwidth. I plan to replace the i5 with another motherboard featuring more RAM. She requires a Mini ATX form factor that fits her existing case. I’m considering options such as the MSI B150m Mortar or Gigabyte B150M-DS3H. Let me know if this sounds good.

I looked up the model and it switched to mITX, but I still need the original mATX. I also got a new PSU and found this Cooler Master MWE Bronze V2 650. I’m hoping it works well because it fits our budget.
