I think u should get a decent cooler, cuz u never know if u'r processor starts getting to heated up.... A one time cooler can save u'r other components... just get a decent air cooler.

You wont need a cooler. Worry about that later...

 

A B450 mother board would be a better choice than the A320, so you can tweak cpu performance.

I don't think so. Most HP motherboards are BTX not ATX. So the stand offs will be in the incorrect places. I'm sorry for that news.

In case I'm wrong, closely examine your board where the screws are located. Compare that to where the holes are on the new board you're looking to buy are located.

The EVGA N1 400W power supply is really bad. Does the PSU from the HP prebuilt support ATX with standard 24pin connector? If so that would be much better than that garbage EVGA unit.

CPU: Intel i7 6700k  | Motherboard: Gigabyte Z170x Gaming 5 | RAM: 2x16GB 3000MHz Corsair Vengeance LPX | GPU: Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1080ti | PSU: Corsair RM750x (2018) | Case: BeQuiet SilentBase 800 | Cooler: Arctic Freezer 34 eSports | SSD: Samsung 970 Evo 500GB + Samsung 840 500GB + Crucial MX500 2TB | Monitor: Acer Predator XB271HU + Samsung BX2450
