Depends on what you're using it for

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.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

We need more info. What are you doing with the system? Are you willing to spend double on an SSD of equal capacity to a hard drive?

 

 

Obviously if all you need is one terabyte and you're OK with spending $90 then an SSD is a great choice.

Just a hard drive will do
