So i recently bought the ''MSI Nightblade MIB VR7RC-254EU'' which has an GTX 1060 3gb and intel i5 7400 but i'm thinking of upgrading the intel to Ryzen 5. Does it fit in that mini itx case though? Also i'm new to just this specific forum so i'm probably creating this topic in the wrong part of the forum...(sry).

Yes, but you will need an ITX mobo as well, which gives limited choice.

The chip is very small. It could fit in your pocket.

 

Just kidding. Yeah, Ryzen ITX boards (and nice ones) are a thing these days.

Wait... why exactly are you swapping the board and chip?

You'll also need a Mini ITX Mobo 

Here's a good one: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/nG98TW/asrock-ab350-gaming-itxac-mini-itx-am4-motherboard-ab350-gaming-itxac

Hmmm... My current mobo is: MSI ms-b9071 and i have no clue if it is mini itx or not but i'm guessing it isn't. Well then i might actually upgrade another time but now i know what i need atleast! i thought it was just like *Change cpu, BOOM! done*.
