You recently purchased an i5 3470 and installed it properly (refer to the photo). After turning on your PC, your GPU (GTX 1050) wasn't recognized, but your CPU was detected via CPU-Z. The screen resolution remained at 800 x 600 even though it should have been 1920 x 1080 before the replacement, and the system was running very slowly. After a restart, the boot screen displayed an "Overheating Error" and the PC crashed. You've already added a CPU cooler but didn't apply thermal paste, possibly causing the issue. Your original specs included an i3 2100 GTX 1050 with 8 GB RAM, P8H61-M LX3 PLUS R2.0 v0609 BIOS.

You can't just put a CPU in without thermal paste and hope it works well for over 30 seconds.

You should apply thermal paste to the CPU and consider using a cooler to effectively manage heat and release it into the case.

You must use thermal paste, otherwise your CPU cooler won't really help much.
