Looking to swap out the cpu and motherboard and just have a few questions. Computer is mainly for gaming and am hoping to get all the parts before September.

My current build is:

Motherboard asus b150m-et m2/wow(max memory 32gb)

cpu skylake intel core i7-6700 processor quad core,8 of thread, 4x3.4ghz 4x4.0ghz turbo

memory 16gb ddr4 crucial 2666mhz

graphics sapphire pulse amd rx 6600 8gb gddr6, rdna 2 architecture,hardware raytracing, smart access memeory,amd freesync technology, video steaming up to 8k, radeon vr ready premium, amd fidelityfx, radeon image sharpenig, radeon antilag, game driver optimizations, direct 12 ultimate

storage ssd-512gb kioxia cilent ssd m.2 nvme

power supply 500w aerocool integrater 80 plus bronze

case mars gaming mc400 crystal tower case white

cpu cooler Intel E97378-003 Boxed CPU Cooler 12V 0.60A Socket Socket 1150 1151 1155

And this is what i want to change:https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BJmdyK

Question's i have:

Would you recommend a different Motherboard or Cpu?

Is the pc case big enough?

I currently have 3 fans, don't have the name of them but i think their on the low end, would i have to get better one's?

What 2tb storage would be good to buy?

What kind of Cpu cooler should i buy?

What kind of performance and graphical quality should i expect?

You also need DDR5 memory, at lest 32GB.
New CPU cooler
650-750W PSU.
Performance, several times of what you have now.

If you mostly do gaming, why do you need a 16 core CPU? the 7800X is more than enough.

But i would suggest you not get AMD till the bios issues with CPU voltage problems get ironed out.

AMD option, go for the 7800X3D if you want the best gaming performance:
