Although if you want a better GPU now and upgrade the CPU later, you won't have to worry. 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?

Posted May 8, 2019 Sounds like a good deal. Worst case you upgrade your CPU later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
