You will need a new PSU as the present one is so bad that it is rated as – Tier F • Replace immediately

 

Two matching 16GB sticks of DDR4 3200MTs RAM, this will get the best from the CPU, the present stick should be sold as it is too slow and would cause a bottleneck if you try and use it with faster RAM as the faster RAM gets clocked backwards to match the speed of the slower RAM.

 

Dark Flash is a brand name so the case info tells us nothing.

 

Corsair VENGEANCE RGB PRO DDR4 RAM 32GB

 

Gigabyte NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 WINDFORCE OC Graphics Card for Gaming - 12GB

 

Corsair RM750x 

 

£612.96p all in, shipping is all free.

 

The PSU is the most important of all computer component so don`t ever be tempted to skimp on one, it will end badly if you do.
