I have a PC with i3 530 2.9Hz (1st Gen), A old Intel MB, 450 W PSU, GT - 610 GPU and 8 GB DDR3 RAM. I've ordered a Intel i3 9100F, RX 570 4GB, 16 GB 2400MHz RAM and a Gigabyte 

H310MH M Board. Later I found out that my old PSU does not have a PCIe and the community helped me pointing out. So now I want know if everything is fine with the new components.

What is your HDD/SDD? I assume just a SATA hard drive? I would recommend getting a SSD, but is not required. 

 

Nothing else comes to mind. The case? Will it fit the new motherboard and have enough clearance for a new GPU?

500 GB SATA HDD is there and the board does not support M.2 so SATA SSD makes no sense.

The case should be good.

Thanks.

Ohh I see but I'm gonna stick with my HDD thanks.

SSD was one of the best upgrades I ever made. Keep the HD for extra storage and get an SSD for your OS and most used games. It just makes your whole system feel so responsive.

Other than the CPU, mobo and Ram combo being pretty poor value in a majooo of regions, its fine. And that H310 boards are pretty poor. 

 

Just get a cx550 PSU from Corsair. You needed a PSU upgrade anyways judging by the age of your machine
