You can find really good deals on used ram, mobo, CPU combos so I’d suggest going for them. Mobo accessories are sparse these days. Io plates are built in, sata isn’t used much anymore, and that’s all you’d ever really get. Maybe the M.2 screws will be missing but they’re a standard size.
Plus if it comes as one unit then you don’t have to worry about your new CPU not being compatible with the old mobo and needing a donor CPU to flash the new bios.
