Inquiries regarding motherboards and Ryzen processors
You can upgrade to a Ryzen 5 3600 later if you purchase the original model. When selecting a motherboard, focus on compatibility with overclocking and sufficient USB ports for your VR setup. Your Noctua cooler should work with the NH-D15 if it matches the new motherboard specifications.
Confirm BIOS is updated to a suitable version ahead of time. Consider the form factor (ATX, mATX, etc.), available ports, and internal components like PCIe slots, M.2 drives, and RAM slots. For overclocking, refer to the motherboard tier list: Ensure you have the AM4 bracket installed. Since 2019, the NH-D15 includes an AM4 bracket; prior purchases require acquiring it.
