I9 9900k Upgrade Northern Europe

  • Planing to upgrade
  • Current specs are I9 9900k with decent AIO, 32gb ddr4 and RTX 4060 8gb.
  • i play mostly PUBG, GTA5E, BeamNG, Operator, DayZ and would also like to play Squad and few others i cant quite run currenly, a few games of these are quite cpu heavy so thus thinking of upgrading CPU, also as gpu is the latest upgrade.
  • Northern Europe
  • Hoping not to use much more than 300€ but can wait a bit and stretch budged, dont need the newest and best, just hoping to get decent jump now as likely will build a new PC in a year or so and this will be left as a secondary.
  • WiFi and Bluetooth no needed but would be nice upgrade
  • got full atx case and no size constraints
  • dont need any rgb, will turn them off anyway if there is any
  • Any other specific needs? If possible i would like to keep the RAM and AIO, i believe i have all brackets, can also get some if needed, most likely buying used so end parts may vary depending on what is available currently, also if there are European wide used parts sites, let me know, only have bought from local marketplaces.

Coilovers with adjustable rideheight for 1200€ or under

Looking to get Adjustable coilovers for my 2002 330xd, would like to stay under 900€ if i could, so i could do some preventative maintenance while there, but can go to about 1200€. i have heard everyone recomend the Billstein shocks etc, but i dont think the cheaper ones have height adjustment and cant even find ones that would fit my car from their website. i need height adjustment because i live in quite rural area and we sometimes get between 20-40cm snow on our road and on most mornings it likely wont be plowed before i go to work, so i will need to be able to raise it to a decent height for winters but be low for summer time. My stock height 325i did manage it well until the stock undertray broke and alternator ate snow, so keeping at least that height is needed as i would like to keep this in bit better shape.

Professional Navigation System, radio/radio buttons not working

just got a 330d e46 with the Professional Navigation System without a working radio, the headunit works fine mostly in other ways, shows trip stuff and most menus, and in nav it asks for cd, but none of the radio buttons itself work, there is only some radio sound sometimes.

Now is this worth fixing or should i just get an aftermarket headunit? I would like to have the headunit look as original as i can but want a good one with hpf/lpf and other needed settings and also would like to be able to see the trip computer and other bmw stuff on the headunit.

or should i go for a bluetooth amplifier only? could be easy way arround it and could keep original nav etc?

i had an eonon 7 inch headunit in my 325i for a bit but did not like the large screen/no physical volume knob and lack of buttons, otherwise it was decent but would not go back to that model.

Let me know if you have recomendations for Headunits/BT Amps, thanks in advance!!!
