Thanks! I heard some horror stories of the wifi card already in the motherboard, are they true?

 

If you don't trust the included card, pick another motherboard 

Budget (including currency): Max $1660 USD

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Blender, software development, games (Cyberpunk 2077)

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): ITX Build, maximum 25 liters, 1440p 144hz, NVIDIA GPU, no peripherals are needed, buying sometime before Jan 20th.

 

So I made this list: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/EthanTheNoob/saved/#view=9XRjWZ

 

I have a few variations with the following changed: A 3060 12GB instead of the 4070 super, a few different cases (the A4-H20, Evolv XT, Fractal Terra and the Form D T1), a Lian Li SP 750w ITX PSU, and a ASRock A620I lighting board for some variations. The coolers that are different are the L12s, and the  IS-55 (w/ a noctua fan), respectively to each cases maximum clearance.

 

I am looking for the best value for performance and longevity, and yes, NVIDIA does not scream value, but that is the price to pay for my workload.

 

Feedback is appreciated on the variations, Thanks.

 

(I know things can change by Jan 20th, but RTX 50 series is most likely out of my budget, and might not release by then)

There is no need to buy a separate WiFi adapter, the motherboard includes the needed card.

 

An SFX PSU might offer a bit more room inside the case, making assembly a bit easier.

 

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

I'll change the PSU 

 

Thanks.
