Your going to extremes though.
Have just spent £290 on;
an i5 9400 + h370 motherboard (Which has these nvme slots but I'm not using) + 8gb ram. Already got a case, a psu, an ssd, monitor etc etc. So it's actually really cheap. I can add graphics, ram, storage if I want/need later on.
Replacing a 10 year old i3 laptop.
That'll do me thankyou!
That i5 is no slouch and that mobo will be fine. It will still be running most software fine in 5 years time at least.
There are very few typical pieces of software that are constrained by a modernish CPU these days. Even the world of gaming is not that crazy in reality.
