Here is my PC. I have always been an intel guy, but I'm trying to make the switch to AMD. I have all types of notifications of stores to let me know when the 9950x3d is in stock. I decided to go with this cpu bc I game everyday, but I also run a small business on the side and use photoshop a lot. I'm in the process of finding the right motherboard but also confused if I switch do I have to get different ram and buy Windows again?

Ok so your motherboard is ddr5 ram, so you won’t need new ram. However when I’m looking at your system I only see 1 stick of ram? And also you can get a white mobo for am5 really easily. https://pcpartpicker.com/products/motherboard/#s=41&f=2&Y=8200000,8200062&sort=price&page=1 these should all be good, except that nzxt one. The b650 is all you should need but if you plan on major overlocking and you did say a 9950x3d so I would probably get one of the x870 ones

First off thanks for helping me out. I'm looking at a B850 edge TI. Love the way it looks but also has good reviews from what I seen so far
