New Mini PC build

Took some inspiration to one of the latest LTT videos with the NZXT H1 

 

I've just thrown together a PC and would like to share with everyone before I pull the trigger and make a mistake! 

 

Case - NZXT H1 

CPU - Intel Core i7 - 9700k 

Motherboard - ROG Strix Z390-I Gaming

RAM - Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB 

GPU - ASUS ROG Strix Geforce RTX 2080

 

Would like to know if this is all compatible and/or other suggestions to make it cheaper? 

 

Thanks!

If you save money with Ryzen, you can probably afford a 2080 super

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

What’re you wanting to use the PC for specifically? Gaming, content creation, video stuff/audio stuff for work? Awesome stuff so far though 😍

It'll be the Gaming PC, I'll be using my current PC as a streaming/recording PC.

Whats the equivalent Ryzen to the I7 9700K? Dont know a lot about AMD.  

The Ryzen 5 3600 is a strong contender, with a 6/12 configuration like the 8700K.

Done a bit of digging, this is what ive come up with. Thoughts?

 

Case - NZXT H1

Motherboard - ASUS ROG Strix B450-I Gaming

CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 3700x 

RAM - Corsair Vengance LPX 16gb 

GPU - ASUS ROG Strix RTX 2080 Super

 

All up its an extra $250NZD ($150USD) from previous system but I can deal with that.
