I bought the M01-F0024 computer and I am wondering if I can upgrade to a 700W power supply (link: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/evga-700w-atx12v-eps12v-80-plus-bronze-power-supply-dc-dc-technology-bl...

I want to upgrade my CPU and GPU to the Ryzen 9 3950x and the Radeon RX 5700 XT which the GPU requires 600W and the CPU requires around 100W. I also want to get liquid cooling and 32gb of ram.

first, is it possible that the motherboard can be upgraded to that power supply?

second, do I need a power supply that pumps out more power? Does the required power add up for all of the components or are they all separate things?

third, if it doesnt work do I need to buy a new motherboard?

 

I feel like the computer I got might be really restricting and I should have researched better PCs because all of the comments on this computer seem that it is not that good upgrade wise.
