[SOLVED] Advice for Mobo & CPU upgrade

[lollypc]

I built my first PC in 2017 and have added to it since then. It comprises of:

CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 2400G with RX Vega 11 graphics
Mobo - Asus Prime B350 plus
RAM - Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory
HDD: Samsung 970 Evo Plus 500 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
SSD: Samsung 870 Evo 1 TB 2.5" Solid State Drive
GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4 GB CERBERUS Video Card
PSU: SeaSonic FOCUS Plus Gold 550 W 80+ Gold
Case: Corsair 760T ATX Full Tower Case
Monitor: AOC G2590PX 24.5" 1920x1080 144 Hz Monitor

The LAN (Realtek® RTL8111H, 1 x Gigabit LAN Controller) no longer works, so I use an Asus USB-AC68 instead. As the Ryzen 5 2400G will no longer be supported with Windows 11, I thought I may as well replace that as well as the Mobo.

Can anyone advise which Mobo & CPU I should buy please?

If your PC is doing everything you need it to their no reason to change anything. You can use W10 for 4 more years.

I'm in Spain and medium budget.

I know I can still use W10 until 2025, but I thought I may as well upgrade it now especially as I've been meaning to change the mobo since it lost the internet connection.

medium budget.

what i mean't is the budget you are willing to spend.

 

[lollypc]

what i mean't is the budget you are willing to spend.

Maybe up to €500 for both mobo & cpu.

Thank you, I will look into your suggestions, especially the AMD Ryzen one.

Thank you, I will look into your suggestions, especially the AMD Ryzen one.

The intel build he posted will outperform that AMD build.

The intel build he posted will outperform that AMD build.

Thank you for your reply. I quite like AMD as it has been very reliable for me, but I will look into the performance of Intel v AMD.

If you want to save money then use @Koekieezz Intel build and change the cpu to this one.

Intel Core i5-11400F Review - The Best Rocket Lake

The Core i5-11400F is Intel's most affordable Rocket Lake processor. While its multiplier is locked, you can still adjust the power limit. Once we did that, the CPU ran over 15% faster and almost matched the Core i5-11600K. We also made an interesting discovery regarding Gear 1 vs. Gear 2.
