Not enough info at all...

Really depends on the needs, wants and duties you require to be fulfilled...

 

Its an ACE Desktop Office PC with an SSD.

But that 8600GPU wont play todays games (within reason due to DX11+ Games)

 

Max GPU I'd be using is a GTX970 or RX470/570 Class GPU for 1080p and even then it still depends what games and needs you want.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

the 8600GT is obsolete, the 3450 is not

 

the i5 is 5 years newer

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? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad
