@Hexus Did you try removing the chipset shroud to see whether a custom heatsink could be swapped-in or the fan replaced like-for-like? Most longevity concerns seems to focus on the chipset fan as a key weakness.
Agree that the 4 sata ports suck. I can't figure out why they did that. Even just splitting some sataIII ports to sataII would be useful given HDD still don't really need SATA3 bandwidth.

I'd either get a 1tb m.2, or 2x512gb SATA, and combine them with 2 current 512gb for a 2tb RAID0. Should get pretty decent performance out of it, and as it's purely for gaming, data loss isn't an issue.
Old puter - still good enuff till I save some pennies!
that's just overkill!!!
