It's been almost eight years since my last build and it is time to build a new one. This time I plan to go even smaller having recently acquired an ncase M1. I'd love to get feedback from the community to sanity check the build and make sure I'm not doing something dumb here.
The plan is it use this for gaming and general multitasking/productivity.
The budget is ~$1800.
The game I play most currently is Apex Legends. I'd like to build system that can max out at 1440p and perform solidly at 4K.
My big lingering question is if I should bump up to a 2080 Super, but I'm curious about thermal performance if I do that given this is a SFF enclosure.
