the 3770 is hard to find at a reasonable rate, cheapest is $90 atm which is a bit much imo. Winning a bud sub $80 or so would be worth it though, try your hand at some auctions.

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 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

There's always Ryzen, what does a 1600 look like for you, price wise?

i7s usually always have a stupid tax. 3770s are going for around 100$ right now... I dunno if I'd do it at that point, I mean for instance, the r5 1600 is 80$ at Micro Center right now, and you get another 30$ if you pair it with a motherboard. (Not that that applies to you wherever you live, just an example) So I'd just save a little more and upgrade to a current platform, unless you do some serious digging and get a good deal.

 

I'm usually for going for a simple upgrade when possible, but 100$ for a 3770 is just a little too dumb to me.

1600x is even less expensive somehow? alright nice. How about the 2600?

That performance seems odd. Try reinstalling windows.
