Ok so my Mobo started acting up. And I think its time to upgrade. It lasted nearly 8 years. So looking to upgrade CPU+MOBO+Ram pronto. Also need to upgrade the cabinet. Current cabinet including peripherals weight 20kg+ (13kg cabinet alone), So looking for a bit smaller and less weight but no compromise on airflow and cooling etc.
Will prefer AMD Ryzen 3600 or equivalent intel setups as I want it to last atleast 5years or so. Warranty is+. Dont want to change SMPS, GPU, HDD atm, but open to adding SSD. I multitask a lot and usually play games etc at medium or high graphics. I used to generally play games while having 10-12 tabbed browser +1-2 software running background and alt tabbing if needed.
If anyone have more questions please ask, I will check the thread everyday.
