Question STGAubron computer upgrades

[owensc08]

Yes, I messed up and bought the STGAubron gaming computer off of Amazon. Unfortunately, I am past the point of returning and money back. So here I am. I have identified that I want to upgrade the CPU and Graphics card for the computer, however from what I am told, the current ones are beginning to get outdated/not able to run games the way I 'd like them to run. I am having a hard time finding "Compatible parts" with this computer as the Motherboard is named in the compupter as "STGAubron B75M4" and on the motherboard physcially it says "B75M4-Plus". When I google it, I mostly get back ASUS B75M-Plus without the 4. I know things are very specific with all the information and compatibility, I will list known information and then lay my questions out at the end.
Computer Brand is STGAubron, Model ABR1022, CPU Intel Core i7-3770 3.4-3.9 GHz, CPU Platform is Socket H2 (LGA1155), Motherboard STGAubron B75M4, Motherboard Chipset Intel B75 (Panther Point-M Enhanced), BIOS American Megatrends 4.6.5, Memory 32GB DDR3 SDRAM, Graphics NVIDIA GEForce GTX 1660 ti GDDR6 SDRAM

1. Any clarification on the differing motherboard names?
2. What are 3 CPUS that are compatible around the $200 range (or what website and information do I need since I cannot find it currently)?
3. I'd like to upgrade to an RTX 3060 if I can get the other upgrades nailed down, What parts to I need to acquire to make this happen?(New Processor, Motherboard, Memory)

Thank you for taking the time to read and help me figure this out. I am very mechanically inclined and I am able to build and repair things but when it comes to compatibility, I am not the best at it. Have a good day brother!☝

The motherboard is already maxed out with RAM and CPU. The GTX1660Ti is a somewhat balanced match for it. I would not bother 'upgrading' the CPU as generational improvements after Ivy Bridge are very small.

RTX3060 is OK, I suppose you can use DLSS for newer games. It's about 15-20% faster than the 1660Ti, so not an earth shattering improvement. I wouldn't waste the money on this system though. You also haven't said anything about the power supply.

IMHO just use it as it is and extract as much value out of the existing components, and set aside money towards a future new system. Take it as a learning experience.

Thank you for your response. Had to find the power supply specs, 500W. The main issue that I am currently having the Company work through is a Kernel Power Event ID 41. They are trying to figure out if it is the Power Supply or overheating. but it is still under warranty so they are helpful rn.
