Hey guys!

 

Recently I have upgraded one of the systems at the request of the friend, and I will be left with some older components. I am yet to try an ITX build, so I figure now is a good time to try. I will be using an Intel G3258, 8GB of RAM and an MSI Nvidia 750Ti from the last build, and I am willing to dedicate up to £200-300 to complete the ITX build. so now I just need:

 

  • ITX Mobo
  • ITX case
  • Suitable PSU
  • HDD/SSD (don't need anything too fancy)

 

My main problem is trying to find a good Motherboard that is worth the price, as any ITX mobo with wifi causes its price to rocket. Can I just use a wireless USB stick?

 

Any advice you guys can give will be greatly appreciated. This rig will be solely used for some very casual gaming on the go, WoW and a few retro steam games, so the GPU should be plenty.

 

Thanks guys!

There ain't no getting off this train, until the end of the line!
