Nope, you would have to swap the mobo out. I would def swap it out for an upgrade anyway because the OEM Acer mobos are terrible.

It doesn't matter. If you've got a system with 7th gen then all it supports is 7th and 8th 6th and 7th.

7000 and 6000 series use 200 and 100 chipsets respectively and are NOT compatible with the 300 series chipsets that support 8000 and 9000 series CPUs or vice versa. It doesn't matter what model board or chipset.

You've got a locked chipset so you can't overclock (you can still utilize the boost clock). I wouldn't bother with anything more than a Hyper212 or something similar for the CPU.

Then go with an air cooler. AIOs have pump noise and fan noise. Air coolers don't have pump noise. Just get something decent for like $30

I wouldn't pay $300 on a 9700k when 3700x, 10600k and 5600x exist at the same price point.

a 120mm AIO is useless, will be hot and loud. get a mid-range air cooler instead
