I think instead of the 9700k go with the i7 8700k and still the ssd. If the 8700k is too expensive for a ssd as well, get the 9600k. and the ssd.

Never skimp on an SSD

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

Well with that PortSmash security thing impacting cpu's that have hyperthreading, the 9700k seems like a better choice but its also way more expensive and it goes out of stock. Like Smiles4Miles and fasauceome said, get the SSD regardless of which cpu you pick. 

8086k

aorus pro z390

noctua nh-d15s chromax w black cover

evga 3070 ultra
