Not a good deal. Unless you're upgrading from 8th gen Intel. Ryzen 3600 has this beat in many benchmarks.

Won't fit in the case most likely, since low profile cards have a shorter PCB board. Also you have to replace the metal bracket that is the...

Bad idea. Not only it's different in size, it's also different in speed. Better of selling the 16GB kit and buying this (or, if your...

Default TechFast 750W PSU died on my system (3500x, 2060 super). PSU upgrade is a MUST.

Buying a non K Intel in a non Z motherboard is just like throwing money when comparable AMD systems are cheaper AND can be overclocked.

So-dimm RAM are more expensive and not as fast. Also, where's the fun in that? Getting a PC together is the best part of all.
