[SOLVED] Windows 11 compatible CPU & motherboard upgrade for current build

[herperfroggy]

I need to upgrade my CPU and motherboard before I can upgrade to Windows 11. Also, my motherboard or CPU died today, gets power no boot or error. I use my PC for gaming mostly. I want to try to stay under $300 but could possibly go to $500.

Don't upgrade hardware just for Win 11.
(IMHO)

But, if your current parts are broken...
You'll need a new motherboard, CPU, RAM.
What PSU is in there now? May need to be replaced.
