not if you want to clock, because the 3700X has only 65W TDP and the 3800X 105W... whereby the clocking is currently such a thing with the buggy AGESA versions X-D
Yes you can. There is no need to combine an AMD CPU with a AMD GPU - also there is no advantage in doing so.
What kind of chip?

The wraith cooler has two cords. one for the 4 pin rgb header and one for a usb header. if you use the rgb header, it will allow the asus board to control the fan lights. not the ring or logo lights. however, this lets icue fiddle with the color through the integrations.
using the usb cable prevents icue from touching it as you have to use the cooler master software in order to mess with it, but that software allows you to control all the lights versus only being able to change one out of three.

Wraith Prism RGB CPU Cooler
it's always the question for what you use the cpu for. for a little surfing and that's quite enough. but if you want to get full performance out of it and the cpu runs for hours at high speeds, i would recommend an extra cooler.
The thermal compound is already applied to the cooler. However, I cannot recommend using this cooler for this CPU. Either the CPU runs relatively hot or the PC gets really loud.
So, what are you saying, that you need a new graka?
The GTX 1070 will give you a clear bottleneck (11-12%), but if you still have one lying around, that's the best idea at the moment.
Should easily be enough if you don't overclock it mercilessly.
Are the 65℃ idle or load...., if load, this would be very good, if idle very bad. I had about 38-40 ℃ idle and up to 80 ℃ load (prime 95 with avx).....

According to https://rog.asus.com/ch-de..., the 3800X is supported from BIOS Ver 2301.

Sorry about the English (!). I had this combo and it worked fine - but I did need to update my Bios.
On my Asus b450 f game, it worked without a bios update, it works fine
The mainboard matches the CPU. The RAM could also fit. However, as far as I know, the CPU supports a maximum of 3200 Hz. The RAM is therefore throttled but should run. The MB also supports max. 3200 Hz RAM.
Hello,
The motherboard is fine but the ventirad is not. It doesn't support AM4, but apparently there is an exchange system at be quiet : https://www.bequiet.com/fr...

Yes the 3800X will work but you will have to update the BIOS first. You can go to the official Asus website for more information on the procedure.
If that is still relevant for you (or for others who see this):
In my opinion, a strong CPU is nice to have for Plex today, but transcoding works better with a GPU like the NVidia P2000. Sure, the quality will always be better with CPU transcoding but for on the fly transcoding, which Plex offers for clients, the GPU is simply capable of transcoding more streams and faster without completely overloading the CPU (especially for 4K).
However, what else you need for a Plex server depends on the application. I personally have unRaid with 2x SSD cache and 15 HDDs. But of course it can also be smaller. With Windows (10? or Server) you need an SSD for the OS, which in my opinion should be at least TB, because Plex stores metadata, transcoding cache and database on the SSD. If you are stingy here, you will have problems when the SSD is full. Of course, you could also throw these things onto the HDD, but that of course costs performance and a higher power requirement, as the HDD then has to be started for every activity in the database.
And of course a USB HDD works well, especially for a small media library, but in the long run you can consider buying internal HDDs, possibly with redundancy via Flexraid or MS Storage Spaces.
Switching to intel is not a good idea. If you are willing to buy a new motherboard then you could wait for ryzen 4000.
