Windows 10: I'm upgrading my PC and I need help trying to figure out what to do first.

I'm upgrading my self-built pc. I'm running Win 10 home. I already put in a graphics card which can run x16 but is running at x8 because of the CPU. Trying to figure out what to do next is driving me crazy. For one thing, my motherboard with an AM4 CPU socket is 7-8 years old with no problems. These are the things that I am wanting to do: I need to switch the CPU for Win 11 and graphics. I can get a CPU for about $90 that will fix the issues. But should I even bother since the MB with the M4 socket is so old? I Need to change from Legacy to UEFI and putting in a larger HHD already acquired.

Issue with upgrading to m.2 NVME, Help?

I've done what "ignatzsonic" has done, multiple times.

Image the existing SSD to another drive, which could be the internal HD or an external one. Use the imaging software to create a bootable USB rescue drive. Swap SSDs. Boot from the USB rescue drive, and restore the image to the new SSD. Use Disk Management to resize the main partition if the new SSD is larger than the old, and the imaging software didn't already do that.

Is the laptop in question the ASUS FX553VD? A little Web search suggests that it supports NVME M.2 SSDs, but I wish that I was certain. It worries me slightly that Crucial doesn't list any M.2 NVME SSD upgrades for it.
