best performance or best value?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

You have basically two options if you don't want it to be too crappy, good headroom for expanding to 8 cores+

Given prices above i'd say go for MSI.

this one's technically mini dtx but fits most ITX cases

B450i MSI Gaming Plus AC above is best you'll get (assuming in NA, as prices could swing in different region) for cheap, should be good for 8 core OC, If you don't wanna step up to about 220$ x570 ITX. If you did go for x570 ITX though pretty much all of them have insanely good, 10/10 VRMs, sometimes better then standard ATX x570s at same prices, just choose one with features or price you are looking for.

No one can really match the MSI B450 ITX board for the same price
