Im looking to upgrade my 4 year old + pc. Wanna change the motherboard, cpu and memory. I want something stable and over clockable. I would appreciate some advice here as Ive been out of the loop for some time.

Reason for the upgrade has to do with stability. My system has been showing instability issues revolving around USB and sound for a few years now and Ive always felt that the motherboard was the weak spot
 
Is it broken? If it is the rig in your sig then I would be a happy clam. Put in a USB 3.1 card and call it a day!!
