Here is my current PC:
CPU: Intel Core i5-4670 3.4 GHz Quad-Core Processor ($375.27 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H97-D3H ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR3-1600 CL10 Memory ($62.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Seagate Desktop HDD 4 TB 3.5" 5900RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: MSI GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6 GB Video Card
Case: Rosewill CHALLENGER ATX Mid Tower Case ($80.98 @ Newegg)
Power Supply: EVGA 600B 600 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($149.97 @ Amazon)
I will be doing animations and I also want to play video games / stream them. I think it's time to upgrade my CPU. This means I will need a new motherboard as well and cooling system for the new CPU.
I am thinking of getting; 1) AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-Core 3.7GHz AM4 Desktop Processors (which is on sale for 120$ off Canadian) 2) Noctua NH-D15 for cooler 3) GIGABYTE X570 AORUS ELITE
Do you think this will fit in my mid-tower and the combination makes sense?
Or should I just build a new one from skracth? I feel stuck.
