Hi all - brand new here but looking for some advice. Any help would be much appreciated!
Looking to upgrade a component or two but not sure what to look at next.
My current build is here - most recent purchases were the case, fans and PSU.
My main aims (in order of importance) are...
Not interested in editing or anything like that - just gaming. Also not fussed about RGB and not keen on overclocking.
Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated. Budget... let's say around the £400 mark?

My main aims (in order of importance) are...
- Run things like Total War and Planet Zoo with decent graphics settings and quick loading times (on PC I'm an RTS / simulation player rather than an FPS player)
- I am running out of drive space on my SSD and my SATA drive is too old for me to trust it with pictures or videos and I guess it's too slow for games. Considering replacing this with another larger SSD?
- My old motherboard doesn't make the most of my new case - no connections for the front USB 3 type A and C ports - so would be nice to have these up and running.
- Would be nice to make the tower a little quieter - it does get quite noisy when gaming. I've only just bought the case and front fans and I don't think they're that bad - might be the CPU cooler or the GPU fan? Did clean these not too long ago so shouldn't be a dust thing. Might be expecting too much!
