I have upgraded everything in this computer than I can, so far. I have a 600W PSU, 3 2TB hard drives and a 60GB solid state drive. 32GB RAM. I am running Linux Mint 18.
I have to use my GeForce GTX 530 video card because I can't get anything better for this motherboard/BIOS.
My CPU:
product: AMD FX(tm)-8100 Eight-Core Processor
vendor: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD]
bus info: cpu@0
version: AMD FX(tm)-8100 Eight-Core Processor
slot: CPU 1
size: 1600MHz
capacity: 2800MHz
width: 64 bits
clock: 200MHz
Can I replace my mobo with the following one, and just take the CPU, and everything else off my old one and put it on the new one, without losing anything? It is the same format, socket, and chipset.
