if in the US, would think you might need 300-400 dollars.

But you can get some stuff second hand, if it be the RAM, CPU or motherboard to reduce the price.

like an 10th gen intel cpu or if ryzen works, with a newer GPU as the 650 is a few couple of years behind but likely be up in the 250-300 dollar range + the need for storage and one can get stuff second hand to reduce price by 20-100. If not some can recommend older hardware that is not overpriced etc.

What 10th gen would be good. I5 or i3 or i7

make sure to use the quote button or we won't see your responses.

 

You won't be able to get an i7, alongside new ram and motherboard, for only $400. An i5 would be a big step up, but from your current CPU, so would an i3.

 

If you want to save money now and wait until you can get a bigger upgrade your current setup would go well with an i7-3770 and some more DDR3.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

gpu prices aren't that great for lower budgets. also this is a random list with some added options that you dont need or to choose.

extra storage, if you use your own storage from the old computer + 2TB, SSD is a bit expensive but got more speed if using less files and more editing?

 

do note, this is 100-200 dollars more from extra options or if choosing something else instead.

or if what the guy above said works, and the more you can re-use from the old system the better.
