The year is 20XX. Everyone plays Fox at TAS levels of perfection. Because of this, the winner of a match depends solely on port priority. The RPS metagame has evolved to ridiculous levels due to it being the only remaining factor to decide matches.

Only Abate, Axe, and Wobbles can save us.

Looks good for me, but I'd try to go above budger by like $20 and get a Z97 for overclocking.

don't get the h97.  It can't overclock.  

 

I'd recommend skipping on the SSD if you can, its a bit much for a budget build.  And just a preference is to get a modular psu if you can afford just so cable management is easier and better.

The Prodigy is a HUUUGGEEE case for being mITX, so if you want mITX for a small build, maybe consider a different case, or consider the mATX version instead for a larger board.

Case: Lian Li PC011-D - CPU: 3900x - GPU: 2080ti Reference - Mobo: Gigabyte - Ram: Corsair 4x16gb 3200MHz - SSD: 2TB Samsung Evo NVME

I'm pretty sure it does support multiplier OC'ing but you don't get as granular control like on Z97.

Pits still over clocking... Cheapest itx board is 106.. Might be able to keep the price under though! I saw a EVGA 500b here for $30
