Hi there, I am new here and want to build a PC myself.
My very very old dell optiplex 790 burned suddenly and I was shocked.
I extracted and saved the GTX750Ti low profile, sega 500gb 7200 rpm Hard drive, 4X memory cards (PC3-10600 2GB each) , DVDI and old i3- 2120 CPU.
I am not sure if my battery and motherboard are still live so I just threw them.

For now I need to set up a new PC basically with 750Ti and my hard drive, maybe with my memory cards?
I want to go ahead with i5-8400, Gibabyte Z370P D3 but I am wondering if these are compatible with my 750 Ti.

I want to have the fastest online steaming speed ( I will change my home speed to 1G), play most recently games, like NBA 2K20 and Tomb raider with moderate settings, and deal with some softwares fast like matlab...

Since I am new to build PC so for now I just want to set up easier and fulfill the need for the next two or three years.
After that I will upgrade a new CPU and GPU, probably with the same motherboard.

Could somebody take a look if these are ok so I can proceed to buy them.

Thank you

Many more threads to help with streaming.

Psu would be a my first thing id swap out if you can in budget. The cx459 will work with the 1660ti, but it doesnt leave much room to upgrade.

You could use your 750ti if you want to save a buck, but the 1660ti is a massive upgrade.

Thank you. But can I still use my GTX 750 Ti? I don't want to throw it since it has only been used for 3 years.
