Help with PC build
Hi, your old motherboard has stopped working, so you're planning to upgrade your PC. You plan to keep the case, hard drives, and power supply unit. I'm looking for guidance on whether these components will fit in your old case and if your current PSU is still sufficient. Advice on CPU cooler and fan choices would be helpful since you're new to overclocking. Any other tips would be appreciated.
Supported Operating System for Motherboard/CPU
Windows 10 64-bit is compatible.
CPU is compatible with DDR4-2666 memory.
The K280 case can fit up to three 120mm fans, though this may result in inadequate cooling.
Recommended cooler: Cooler Master HAF 912 - Mid Tower Computer Case featuring strong airflow and support for up to six 120mm fans.

An all-in-one CPU cooler is advised.
Recommended fan brand: CoolerMaster Sickleflow.
Power supply needs improvement for optimal performance.

A high-quality power supply is also necessary.

A case with a radiator slot is also necessary. CoolerMaster Sickleflow fans work well, and you’ll need a much better power supply.
Feedback on the updated build: I added a PSU on sale and a highly rated case.

I received only a 2x8GB setup initially, not the 8GB later. This caused numerous problems in getting it functioning properly.
