Hello there!

Now I have an RX 560, Pentium G4400, h110m-k. That's pretty bad so I tought about going to an RTX 2060 and i7 7700k because that CPU works with my MB, but in my country that cpu is 340 euro's and an I5 9600k costs 225 euro's so I tought that If i get a new MB that works with the I5 9600k it would be cheaper and be better. So what is the best MB I should go for.

Specs:
12GB DDR4
RX 560
G 4400
PSU: https://eu.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=100-BR-0600-K2
Current MB: Asus h110m-k

Thanks!
Regards

Can I use the cooler that I have right now? They are both the same socket (FCLGA1151), if it wont work which one would you recommend?
The stock cooler really isn't good enough to keep that 9600K cool, especially if your gaming.

You could save a lot more money if you just went 9400F/B365, those two are cheaper then the 9600K and although you wouldn't be able to overclock it's still quite good. Or AMD Ryzen would be a solid choice.

Thanks bro! I will go for the i5-9400F, it is a lot cheaper and im not into overclocking so I don't really care.
Thanks for helping me out, will my current fan still be too weak for the 9400F or not?

It should work fine but the 9400F comes with one so I'd use the new one with it. Also with those push pin style coolers the pins can wear down a bit after a few times being removed and put onto new CPU's so just use the new one to ensure your getting the best cooling.

Okay, I will use the fan that comes with it, thanks a lot!
