The PSU designed for the Dell 3471 motherboard is a custom piece, quite compact. It won’t fit into the new Rosewill case, and the available cables might not be long enough to reach the board, requiring some adjustments to ensure everything fits properly.
I’ll upgrade to a fresh PSU and motherboard, move the CPU into the new slot and reapply thermal paste—possibly some liquid metal. I’ll place the PSU in the designated spot, maybe with a purple space aesthetic since it matches the Coolermaster AIO color.
This should function properly, and you can liquidate the leftover Dell components to recover some funds.
PSU needs to be priced at $40, while the MMO should be sold between $80 and $90.
I’ve already secured a 3060 and a 3090 for the girl, which cost around 4k USD. That’s super expensive, but honestly, I’m earning about 250 dollars a month from mining Bitcoin.
