Hello everyone.

My 10 year old computer is not compatible with windows 11 and so I was wondering whether to upgrade Mainboard and CPU to something cheap (I guess not many are worse than my 2014 Intel i5).

I don’t see how much specs are important for changing these parts. My Power unit is capable of -800W and I‘ve got enough Y-Cables to connect all my 6 fans 2 ports if necessary. Btw it’s only ever being used for gaming. Do you have any suggestions?

    I even considered switching to Linux, but the only thing I do with this machine is gaming and having it as a backup for when I need windows for a specific task. It doesn’t even have good mouse and keyboard (cheap, small wireless stuff) because I control it with a MacBook Air (my main machine) over steam link via LAN
