Processor compatibility

[cidco71]

I am a twitch streamer and I would like to use the TG01-2170M CTO as the streaming pc Which I put the CPU from that pc into a Custom Gaming pc that I Built, my question is will the motherboard in the TG01-2170M CTO support a Ryzen 3 5300g processor, I just want to downgrade it for use with OBS Streaming software so I'm not using resources on the gaming pc and streaming at the same time.

According to what I found, that PC uses the Erica6 motherboard.  Here is a list of the CPu's supported and the AMD Ryzen 3 5300G is on the list

Do you by chance know the size of the chassis fan in this unit? I'm not sure how to measure it and i need to get a new one  I know its 3 pin but that's all i know

Assuming you are asking about the computer case fan - the typical case fan is listed as 80mm, 120mm or 140mm.  Here is a listing for the 80mm.  You will notice in the listing it says:  Dimension of the outer frame Is 80Mm(L) X 80Mm(W) X 25Mm(H) / The Size of fan is 3.15In(L) X 3.15In(W) X 1In(H); The center-to-center Distance between the Mounting holes are 71.5mm/2.81in.

Then compare what you find on the fan in your PC to those typical fans.  Pick each different size of the three listed in that posting to find one that matches.

Thank you again, just a follow-up, I purchased the Ryzen 3 5300g and it works beautifully, heck even boots faster then my Ryzen 5 5600g machine without the ultrafast boot enabled on the gigabyte motherboard. Thanks a bunch @TheOldMan
