Hey, first time poster here!
I'm looking for some solid ideas about my next project, which is building a do-it-all mITX system that can replace my ps4.
I want the build as cheap as possible, but with the ability to play my games at high settings with 30+ fps. This will be a 3D system, and I have found ODD's so that will not be the focus of this post.
CPU: I have looked into the pentiums, various FX CPUs, and i3's. I'd like to go for the cheapest possible but my concern with the G238 is even if it's OC'd that it would still not handle games at near max settings, plus I would be forced to spend a decent amount on a cooler. Next in line is probably FX as I'm told they smoke intel in the sub $200 range.
Cooler: Dependent on CPU I suppose
GPU: Basically is a gtx 750 ti enough for the gaming / 3D 1080p?
RAM: Pretty easy choice, though I'm sure 6gb is enough I'll get the relatively cheap 8gb 1600 sticks.
Case/PSU: My first choice is an EVGA Hadron (though that ncase m1 sure I sweet right?!), but I'm open to suggestions as long as the case has spaces for fans/radiators, ODD, and is mostly inconspicuous.
I appreciate all comments, so thank you in advance!
