I just wanted to see if i should upgrade as i don't want ruin the hear of my build

as originally i built the SFF PC as a way for portable gaming on a

 

Asus B350m-A Motherboard with aftermarket heatsinks on the mosfets

Ryzen 2400G at 3.9ghz with a Noctua Cooler idk what one but keeps it cool and chill with hardcore gaming
4x4gb ddr4 XMP 2800mhz
with Vega 11 Graphics at 1400mhz core and 1500mhz memory

256mb Sata SSD

new 8tb Hard drive for back up of my main fills

 

but in general i don't want to take away the purpose of this build, if im gonna upgrade might as well go for a ryzen 2700 and a better graphics card than a 1650 but

if i wanted to keep the SFF case i need a SFF gpu and the 1650 is the newest card but will it be a waste on a 2400g t

this build is one of my favorites kinda a show off on what i can do PC wise, and Intergrated graphics have gone a long way intel kinda sucks on that part

I'd start by dropping that PC into a mini-tower, if I was you. Not a fan of SFFs. Quite the opposite, in fact. 

originally made it so i could transport it between oklahoma and kansas can still play apex at 60fps on low-med settings at 720p

Be that as it may, I'm afraid you'll have to put it into a mini-tower to harness its full potential. 

 

Or just drop a low profile mini GTX1650 in there if you aren't into hardcore gaming stuff and want to keep the SFF case, which is understandable in your particular case (No pun intended).
