Hi I've been looking at the RTX GPUs  lately and wish to build / rebuild my current pc. I currently have both the ram and the SSD. My overall budget minus these 2 is around 1100 USD I'd like to just play at 1080p60 ultra for the foreseeable future with the ability to use RTX. I'd love for my build to be small and be a white cube if possible.

Do you hate black accents or do you not mind? A couple cases are good options depending.

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

The case isn't perfectly cubic but it has that really nice boxy look and a really simplified design. The air filters are black, with a square dimpled design

Yes, the crystal is much larger (micro ATX vs mini ITX) so it would have a lot more space. If you wanted to use that case specifically you could fit a much cheaper motherboard

I bumped this build up to a 5700 XT

If you want rtx replace the 5700 with a 2060super in @Fasauceome 's build. You can also get the cheaper msi b450 gaming pro ac itx board

Since unfortunately there aren't any itx boards with bios flashback, I went with X570

The psu should be the 600w plat one but pcpp doesn't acknowledge its existence.

 

The sfx psu  comes with the adapter bracket so the CPU cooler should fit. I'm also kinda new with PC's so don't take my build as a good one because I know it isn't great sry.

 

Idk if where you live the b450i board is updated to the new bios, but my friend (in China) just built a PC with this board 2 days ago and it didn't require a bios update
