Intel Processor: i7-2600k CPU @3.40 GHz LG1155
Motherboard: Asus PZ68 Delux Gen-3
installed RAM 12/16 DDR3
Windows 64
Nvidia Geforce 970X
Corsair 570x Case
6x Corsair CO-9050067-WW HD Series HD120 RBG LED 120MM High Performance RGB LED PWM
Heatsink Noctua NH-D9L Premium CPU cooler with NF-A9 92 MM fan (brown)
Asus VG248QE 24" Full HD 1920x1080 144hz 1ms HDMI Gaming monitor
total of 8 fans with the heatink and the 6x corsair RBG fans, The motherboard does not have enough spots to fit them all, So I got splitters.
My PC has randomly been shutting down on me. The first time I took it to a pc repair guy near me, Turns out one of the RAM cards was bad. I order more, all is good.
Few weeks after that my PC won't turn on at all. I bring it back to the repairman, this time its my graphics card, he has to reinstall the drivers but luckily my hard drive didn't need to be wiped.
A few days ago one of the new Ram cards was bad. I'm suspecting its the 3rd slot on the motherboard Ram slots.
So my question is, I want to buy a new motherboard that can run DDR4 but keep my graphics card and processor,and be able to run 8 fans. Would this be possible? I know the processor is a bit old I bought it in 2012 i'm currently using my pc to play games and make music using Ableton live 10. I feel the DDR3 RAM isn't keeping up with Windows 10 Ram needs. I even close my browser now if im not using it. Any tips would be appreciated!
