I identified the RAM problem and plan to upgrade the graphics card. For the HDMI, it only handles video, not audio, so I should consider replacing the video card instead of the Nvidia 9600GT. Any suggestions? Thank you all.

Read and write speeds range from 300 to 360 MB/s, which is what I expected. I was worried the old chipset wouldn’t handle this new drive, but it seems fine.

You're facing an issue where the MSI 975X Platinum isn't detecting your new X-Fi sound card, even though it's a PCI slot card. Could there be a compatibility or configuration problem? Thanks for reaching out—have a great holiday!

It depends on the budget, but a cheap RX 570 with 4GB RAM would be significantly better. Around $100 or less. OR you could consider a used model like 780 or 980.
