Which platinum PSU from Seasonic do you have? How old is the PSU in your build? You mentioned the currency but where are you located? Preferred site for purchase? So we can locate something closer to you).

If you want to go with concurrent Intel gear, you'll need at least a 360mm AIO while beefy air coolers can be possible with the AM5 platform Ryzen.

Make and model of your case?(it's to understand any clearance issues you might run into).

Sorry i was wrong about my PSU. it's this:

PSU SUPER FLOWER GOLDEN GREEN HX SERIES 750W (SF-750P14XE)​

and its 7 years old.
My case is this:

CoolerMaster Cm 590 III​

As for cpu i want the best for the rest of hardware but i prefer air coolers.So if i understood what are you saying AMD is my only choice.I just want to keep RAM as it is.I live in Greece and i will buy everything from here but from many local sites.
