What's the status? It's still unclear whether it's unlocked or not.

It's not necessary, though it doesn't matter—I won't go overclocking it.

Purchase a b360 board—it's quite good quality and you can usually get it at a reasonable cost.

Sell your i5 to upgrade to a stronger processor. Your 8th gen i7 still has issues with certain games.

It's a decent CPU choice.

It's not ideal either. Try a 3600 or 10600K model. My current i7 8700K performs better than the 8500, but I'm hitting CPU limits in recent games.

It's not a top-of-the-line chip, but overall it handles games nicely.

It's currently reaching its maximum capacity in games and will only deteriorate further over time
