Update on the "African" PC years later. This is how far I've come; the PC master race helped a lot.

Was your old case a DeepCool Matrexx 30? I quite like them as inexpensive cases go.
Great PC!

Yes, but I had bad airflow, so I had to change the cases.

Can only fit 1 intake and 1 exhaust so it isn't great in that respect. Understandable.

Yes, especially if you have resource-heavy workloads

The man the myth the legend himself. Can we get a list of your updated hardware now?
Well here are the upgrades
32GB Lexar DDR4
Added 512GB Nvme SSD
Got a new MONTECH AIR PC case
Because of content creation and graphic design work, I added a condenser microphone, a second monitor and a new keyboard and mouse from Razor. Plus, a monitor arm to hold up the second monitor. Still rocking the same CPU, GPU PSU and MOBO because, well, GPUs are millions where I live in Uganda, and CPUs are cheap either, but I'm working my way to getting upgrades.
At that same time, I actually got married and had to move houses, so all my savings went to that.
