    ASUS made the KGPE-D16 dual socket motherboard that supported the 6300/6200/6100 series chips, Micro-Star probably did too but I'm not completely sure. I doubt you'll be able to find one unless you dig deep into the used market, there might be a few listings on EBay.

    I know its a risky move with a full Noctua themed build but i have wanted it for so long just not been sure how to execute it.
     
    The Parts are my old ones:
     
    Case: Fractal Design Meshify C 
    Mobo: Asus Prime z370 -p
    CPU: Intel 8600k
    GPU: Gigabyte 1080 windforce 
    PSU: Corsair RM650x
    Ram: Corsair 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3000Mhz CL15 Vengeance
    Cooler NH-D15
    Accessories: Cooler Master Vertical GPU holder + Risercard
     
    A rough idea in photoshop and some ideas later this is the sketch of how i wanted it at the end. (No im not that good with photoshop, i know) 

     
    First off to see how the colors match and a small mod to the power button.

     
     
     
     
     
    Then its off to paint the rest off the parts and puck it back together.

     
     
     
     
     
    And for a complete look with some noctua fans.

    Hello friends,
     
    Guided by the need for the ultimate workstation machine, I throw myself into a project that consists of a complete change of the interior and a bit of the exterior of the CM Cosmos 25th edition case.
     
    As you can see in the renders below, I plan to insert a large EKWB 540 radiator and provide airflow through the air tunnel with 4x120mm fans. This project also includes a complete EKWB LC system for which I will specially customize the custom distro/reservoire.
     
    Hardware:
    ASUS ROG Strix Z490 A-Gaming
    Intel i9 10900
    Adata XPG SPECTRIX D50 DDR4-3600Mhz  RGB 4x8Gb 
    Adata XGP  SPECTRIX S40G RGB M.2 1Tb
    Cooler Master V1000 Platinum
    Cooler Master MasterFan MF120 Halo White Edition 
    EKWB all water cooling parts and components
     
    I know this case has been redesigned many times but I will do my best to make something different!
    Thanks for following!
    BR neSSa

    Noctua is the top PC fan manufacturer on the market. Not sure what your talking about.
     
    SSD is a really good price.
     
    Really good build overall.

Even though 3000 series card prices have been released, you should wait a month or a few after the cards are released. Crypto miners are likely to buy 3000 series cards, lots of them, which can affect the prices and stock levels.

If you want to save money you can go for a 7200RPM HDD. Other than the 1650 super being paired with a Ryzen 7, the build specs look decent.
