but how i can know if my CPU won't die in a year of use ? :D

what's your core voltage?

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?

i have had a 4790k sitting at 4.7GHz, screaming along at the max safe voltage for three years. it will be fine.

 

quad cores are still perfectly usable in gaming - productivity is a no on them.

i am not using only for gaming this pc , i am using it for 3d graphic render and  more

1.200 V

That's pretty low, don't worry about affecting lifespan.
