Consider upgrading to an AMD CPU that fits your needs. For gaming at 1440p, look for a high-performance processor like the Ryzen 7 or EPYC series. Ensure the motherboard supports M-ATX and meets your port requirements. If you decide to sell your current setup, you might want to upgrade to DDR5 memory for better performance, while keeping your existing RAM if possible. Your current specs suggest a solid foundation; just match the CPU and board to your gaming demands.

It seems unusual but you're picking up new knowledge each day. You might consider a 7700x + a b650 board, such as the ASUS TUF B650 Plus, along with some RAM for roughly $600. I'm not too confident about shipping, customs, or taxes. It wouldn't be wise to rely on any system still using DDR4. Performance isn't great, and you could find a newer setup for similar prices.

Your CPU works well with 3200 RAM. Your 10100f handled it too. Do you prefer a matx or ATX motherboard? If your case is matx, you need one. If not, go for ATX in an ATX case for better fit and features. Where are you located? USA? Do you have a microcenter close by?

Check intel's site for details on memory options. Since you're in Israel, opting for local purchases helps avoid shipping and customs costs.

I did some research and believe the 7600x is a better choice compared to the 7700x—it’s about $80 cheaper and still performs well at 1440p for gaming. Your motherboard will be a Gigabyte B650M Gaming X AX, and you’ll need the CMK32GX5M2B5200C40 RAM.

We assure you it works perfectly. The industry can rely on this standard. It’s unclear where to buy in Israel, but the 7700X stands out as the top gaming chip beyond X3D. Nearby options include the 7600 and 7600X, which are cheaper if you find them. Gigabyte B650 Elite and Ice boards are also excellent choices. Be sure to include 6000MT/s CL30 RAM too. Its cost is higher than what’s listed, but let us know if you see better deals. Yes, yes, and no. Chip and board are solid, RAM is not. Performance drops noticeably with the 5200CL40 compared to 6000CL30.

what do think is about the KF560C30BBEK2-32? it looks really good on paper but is only on the Ryzen 9xxx QVL list, how much of an issue is this? what do you think about the KF560C36BBEAK2-32?

I use a 6000CL36 kit from the bundle myself. It's fine if CL30 is costly. Be sure to set PBO/CO in BIOS for better cooling, lower power usage, and improved performance. Undervolting is now considered the new method for overclocking AMD chips.

Cl30 seems quite costly at the moment, possibly in a few years. Thanks for your support!
