    RMA your CPU. I had similar problems (changed MOBO, RAM, SSD, PSU, etc) when I built my new CPU at the start of the year.
    After buying a R5 2600 everything worked fine. Turns out I had a bad R7 2700 CPU and AMD was good about replacing it.
    I took about 3 weeks from start to finish. I have no clue how long you will be without a CPU because of the current BS with the USPS.

    yeah, reinstall and move files
     
    since the SSD is new, you can do this:
    unplug old HDDs, plug in new SSD
    plug in the USB drive that has windows 10 on it
    boot from the USB
    install windows on the SSD
    when done installing, restart, install windows updates from the settings, then restart again
    you can install any programs you want now
     
    turn the PC off and plug in the old HDDs
    take files from HDDs and put them on the SSD
    format the HDD so its all clean, now you can use that as extra storage

    If your going for future proof the i7 with 8 threads will help a lot for Vulkan and DX12 games when they come out. Changed the CPU coolers to water, because if your going to spend $60 on an air cooler why not go water. Go with a 980 ti over the 980, because the 980 ti is a weaker Titan X and +2GB of VRAM for 1440k and 4k textures. I change the PSU to 750w for more Overclocking head room.

    Np that's what we're here for. I use a Cisco Linksys E2500 (still hackable but not as bad).
     
    you can use any router from the store, just plug it in to the old router by a Ethernet cord. As for router passwords, yes change it. you can change it under the admin tab in the router setting (the login user name on the router will stay the same) so no one can hack the router using the default login and password, and have your browser save the new password (so you can edit the setting when needed). I would use a randomly generated password.
     
    default login: name: user; password: admin.
    router can be found under Network in windows explore, Network Infrastructure.
     
    As for wifi password use manual set up  (under wireless tab-> wireless security) and use WPA2/WPA mixed. Set a name for the wifi and use a password that you can remember that uses both letters and numbers, then hit save.
     
    hope this helped.

    Okay this is what I'm using right now from my new ISP and home services.
     
    They came with a modem box, wireless router (Tp-Link N300) and a phone line splitter/adapter. The only thing I replaced is the wireless router to the Tp-link AC1750. The only things I changed are, wifi names and password and the DNS thingy from today.The security settings are either set to default or auto. is that just fine or should I change it?

    Just wondering but did you register for a OpenDNS account? Should I or does it not matter? 
     
    I'm still not sure what this DNS thing is. Didn't have this problem until today. My ISP came with a router but it was complete garbage so I bought a new one. Is it because I didn't set it up properly?

    Ok, I would wait till September/October for intel new CPU line. Since the on board graphics are greatly improved over there other CPU and you can skip the GPU, lowering the overall cost of the PC.
