Hello, I can try to assist you with choosing a future-proof M-ITX build that fits your budget around 1500$. Also, do you prefer AM4 or a 1700 series CPU? (keeping temperatures in a reasonable range) Thank you in advance.

Socket AM4 is no longer supported, meaning there’s nothing to future-proof on that platform. Unless you were thinking about Socket AM5.
This list was compiled for a friend as a basic guide. Feel free to use it as a starting point.

unless you're looking ahead in the near term, nothing is guaranteed to last.

It was prepared late last month, so the video card choice isn’t ideal. Still, it serves as a starting point.

Haha true, but that's what I meant to make somewhat future-proof for the PC machine I was talking about.

Hey there, glad you found the info helpful. About the 1700 socket, do you think it's still relevant for the future? Thanks for the build, I'm definitely going to look into it. Appreciate your support!

Intel usually produces just 2 to 3 CPU generations per socket. With the LGA 1700 reaching its third generation, it's probably no longer viable.

I constructed an mITX a few years back with a 3700x and 2070Super. At that time, the 2080ti was the leading choice. The 3700x typically runs between 20-60fps on a 13600k, while the 2070Super matches up to a 3060ti. A couple of years ago, such a setup was quite solid, but now it feels a bit outdated, especially with newer releases. Trying to stay ahead is challenging; only by investing in top-tier gear can one realistically keep up over five years, even if starting from the lower side. A 3900x paired with an 2080ti would maintain relevance longer. However, that PC was an improvement over the older 3770k/gtx970, but I’ve been playing the same three games for over eight years. Relevance depends on personal needs—those who want the newest titles will need to upgrade more frequently and spend more.

Thank you all, it really helped. How can I mark the best answer or close the thread? I saw the Karadjgne steps but can't locate the Trophy icon.
