Yea they used the same memory stacking technique, as they used on the 4060ti.

The 3060ti is far better than any integrated graphics. Why are you getting a 9950x3d, if gaming is not super important?

I often do PCPP lists with the parts an OP has, and mark the price at $0, or mark as purchased, to avoid confusion. It helps with the compatibility side, when making suggestions on the parts still needed.

The 7500f lacks integrated graphics and is clocked slower. I would choose the 9600x. Where are you located that the prices are that high for anything better? The 7700x is $243 in the US. PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 4.5 GHz 8-Core Processor ($242.99 @ Amazon) Total: $242.99...

Assuming your i7 is 6th or 7th gen, as you have ddr4, and are claiming not win 11 compatible here. Easy thing to do is replace motherboard and CPU with either AM4 or go with a 12th gen Intel, and ddr4 motherboard. PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT 3.8 GHz 8-Core Processor...

Hard pass

I do not trust the board to make the right decisions either, given the situation Intel now finds themselves in.

I fear this bean counter was a bad choice as CEO.

Adding storage should not void your warranty.

You can do air cooling, but I would not get that one. I would go with this. PCPartPicker Part List CPU Cooler: Thermalright Royal Pretor 130 BLACK 81.88 CFM CPU Cooler ($49.69 @ Amazon) Total: $49.69 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker...

I wouldn't recommend buying any 13th or 14th gen chip. Regardless the 13600kf isn't a massive jump from the 12600kf anyway.

Yes I have had managers that knew nothing about what they were supposed to be in charge of. It's not an enjoyable experience.

This is what happens when you put a bean counter in charge of a company that should be run by an engineer.

I cannot remember the last time I had a heatsink fan go bad. I would still go with just a thermalright, especially this one. PCPartPicker Part List CPU Cooler: Thermalright Royal Pretor 130 BLACK 81.88 CFM CPU Cooler ($49.69 @ Amazon) Total: $49.69 Prices include shipping, taxes, and...
