Desktop Upgrade 2021

My main desktop was rockin a Ryzen 1600x from fall of 2017.  It has been a faithful desktop and I was waiting for the next upgrade.  The time finally came.  I purchased a new CPU, Motherboard and RAM combo.  I plan on repurposing the original RAM to my HTPC to bring it up to 32GB of RAM.  I found a good deal for 32GB for this system.

I updated the BIOS to the latest version.  I decided to install Windows 11 Pro.  I regretted and later downgraded back to Windows 10.  Windows 11 is not ready for me, yet.  The start menu, slow starts, slow logins, drivers not working right.  My Epson scanning software was not working right.  The 2 main buttons such as PREVIEW and SCAN where hidden until I accidentally clicked on them and then reappeared briefly.  Then disappeared right after.  I am going to hold off on Windows 11 until after a year.  I installed Windows 10 when it appeared on Day 1.  Day 1 was a lot better user experience compared to Windows 11.  I will later purchase a Graphics card to complete this build.

Here are the pictures.
