Hi, I’m looking to upgrade my outdated setup with a budget-friendly approach. Here’s what I’m planning: a CPU like Intel I5-10400F, an Asus Prime H410M-K motherboard, 8GB Patriot Viper Steel RAM at 3200 MHz CL16. I mainly use the computer for editing, rendering, and light gaming. Let me know if you need anything else!

Consider an alternative board besides the H410, such as the Z490. Depending on your GPU, you might not see significant gains from just the CPU, so focus on upgrading other components that impact performance.

In my view, the Ryzen 3600 + B450/550 motherboard offers better value.

I've also looked into this Duo, but they're pricier in my country.
