hello, all. i own a pre-built Inspiron 5675 with a Ryzen 7 1700x. i'm trying to replace the current generic motherboard with a B550M and upgrade the CPU to a Ryzen 7 5700x. i already purchased both components and wish to bring the PC for a technician to install them since i'm not tech savvy enough to handle this operation by myself.
however, firstly i would like to know if my current air cooler is enough to safely handle the new CPU or if i have to buy a new one (and if that's the case, what are the specifications for an adequate cooler. i'm on a short budget after having invested in the new hardware). sadly, i can't make out the model of the cooler inside my rig, and i also can't seem to find any useful information in the documents related to the Inspiron i own. i snapped a couple of pictures of the cooler in case they are of any help to someone with possible insight on the matter. one of them seems to have a readable serial number, but looking it up hasn't led me anywhere.
any help is appreciated.
