You shouldn't cheap out on the power supply.

You can choose a cheaper motherboard.

You can choose a cheaper case.

 

You have Corsair TXM Gold 550w at 60$, after 20$ mail-in rebate: https://www.newegg.com/corsair-tx-m-series-tx550m-550w/p/N82E16817139210?Item=N82E16817139210

You have EVGA GQ 650w at 60$ after 20$ mail in rebate: https://www.newegg.com/evga-650-gq-210-gq-0650-v1-650w/p/N82E16817438059?Item=N82E16817438059

 

Look at MSI B450-A Pro Max, MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max, B450M Gaming Plus, MSI B450 Tomohawk Max 

All excellent boards for Ryzen 3xxx processors.

or the x570 Prime P.

Although, the tuf has dropped so much in price lately, it's barely more expensive than the prime p

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

yeah, tho that just leaved the room to drop even further in cost if we wanted to. tho it was mostly a move to get room for mroe budget for a PSU. even tho the cx550 is perfectly. good.

I have a very good deal for the case too.

Plus shipping on these PSUs is like an extra 40-50$...
