Hey guys.
I'd like to upgrade a little my gaming rig. I have the next PC build^
CPU: Ryzen 7 1700 (non X) with Corsair H110 GTx AIO water cooling.
MB: MSI X370 Gaming Pro
GPU: Nvidia Quadro P2000
SSD: Samsung 960 Pro NVMe m.2
PSU: Seasonic Focus 550 gold.
I am going to change my CPU to 2700X. I am doing an interior design with live rendering. It works like 24/7.
Do I need to move to X470 or I can stay on my X370?
The next thing is GPU. My friend sold me a new GPU, Quadro P5000 for quite a good price.
So do I need to change my PSU? I was looking at Corsair RMx 850x.
Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot. And what is for VRM? Does the X470 motherboards have better power system?Not sure about that with the 10% IPC raise and higher sustained clock speeds with a 2700x with be most beneficial. The MSI gaming Pro X370 will be fine for the 2700x, just make sure you're on the latest bios.

Well, yeah. I know. My MSI X370 has quite good temps on VRM zone. But, when the PC is fully loaded like 24/7 with really heavy rendering, the motherboard is pretty hot. So, I am wondering if X470 motherboards have better temps in such tasks.Some of them do, but any high end x370 will do
