Posted November 10, 2020 Most worthwhile upgrades are going to require a full platform swap-- it could be worthwhile or useless depending on your games of choice, but you'd be looking at around a $300-500 investment at minimum for a new CPU, board, and memory.

Posted November 10, 2020 There are some inexpensive xeons that you could look into. Something like a Xeon E3-1250 V2. Otherwise an i7-2600 or 3770. 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?
