Hello
I have used a pre-built computer with the following specifications for many years.
-IPISB-CH2 motherboard
-intel core 2600k 4 cores
-10 gb ddr3 ram 1333mhz
-gtx 580
-600w power supply

It has served me well. The only part i wanted to upgrade was the GPU. After some digging i found out that my mobo uses legacy BIOS and has compatibility issues with every descent upgrade. I tried upgrading to the gtx 1050ti 4gb specifically.
So i decided to upgrade my mobo as well. I found the following board that should be compatible with the 1050 as well as everything else in my computer.

I'm confident i can perform the upgrade. But i'm still a bit intimidated about this stuff and wanted to get some opinions.
Thank you for your time
