[QUOTE="DanteErodov, post: 2239127, member: 81786"] I would replace the CPU & Motherboard with an Intel one... probably an i5 10400F & a B460 motherboard. Intel i5 10400F is significantly faster than 3300X & should cost roughly the same. If you want to save money you can get an i3 10100F which will perform similar to a 3300x while costing less. Also would advice you to purchase two RAM sticks instead of one & for Intel system you can get away with 2666Mhz memory. In the current situation, believe it or not, Intel system are providing better value. Also B550 is a dead platform so there is really no incentive of going with AMD for a future upgrade path.
