Ahoi dear Overclockers,
I be needing of assistance here

This is the benching results of my PC for now:
https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/25188876

As you can see I have a Supermicro X8DTL motherboard which supports dual LGA 1366
I have 2 Intel Xeon X5670 installed with 2.90 Ghz base frequency and 3.33 Ghz Turbo
I know it can give more but my motherboard can't overclock!
It also lacks USB 3, so the SSD and HDDs installed can't really give what they can
Even the GPU (Evga super overclocked 6GB GTX 1060) doesn't work so fine like it suppose to.


I have done some research and I have found out that I really don't need 2 CPUs for gaming, so I considered buying an overclockable motherboard which supports USB 3

The questions are

1. Would I need a better power supply?
I have a 500 W for now

2. I also edit and convert Videos as a beginner Filmmaker, will losing a CPU play a role in this case? will that for example slow down my workflow?

3. is it possible to choose to not overclock RAM or GPU?

Much Gratitude, Appreciate all help
Jako
