[SOLVED] Upgrading Old Desktop

[Eagles8908]

Looking to overhaul a pc that I had built a few years ago. I want to use my leftover case, power supply, and somewhat recently upgraded SSD. I'm looking for advice on a couple things:

1. Is this all compatible and will most likely fit in my current case (PC part picker did not raise any warnings)?
2. Are there any parts within the same price range that are better than what I have listed here? Or conversely, cheaper parts that will provide similar performance.

I do a lot of gaming which ranges from WoW to Far Cry, Assassins Creed, etc. So I'd like to be able to max these out if it stays within this price range

As always, I appreciate the help you guys and gals provide.

I wouldn't buy that XFX GPU.

Newegg has the Gigabyte Aorus 5700XT for the same price.

Is there a particular reason?

Sorry, I was thinking about the XFX Thicc2. I believe the Raw2 is a lower tier even.

IMO, XFX isn't making good coolers lately.

Awesome, thank you for the tip!

1. Parts look compatible to me.

2. Some thoughts on better parts.

a. Your case is old with only a single front 120mm intake fan.
That is insufficient for cooling any hot components.

b. A balanced gaming pc will budget about 2x the cost of the processor for the graphics card.
You are about 1.4.
I might suggest a less expensive processor and put the difference to a stronger graphics card.
For example a 12 thread I3-10400 processor and a RTX2070 super would price out the same.
