Hi guyz, new to the custom PC/DIY scene. Hope you guyz can give me a hand and give me some advice. Thanks!

Budget - $2k

As listed below the specs:

CPU - Intel I5-8500
GPU - Zotac GTX 1070ti mini
Memory - Klevv 16gb ram
Motherboard - Asrock H310M ITX
HDD - Toshiba 1TB
SSD - Glaxa 250GB
PSU - Seasonic S12II-Non Modular 620W
Chassis - Enthoo Evolv ITX T-glass casing
Cooling system - Intel Cooler Fan
Wifi and Lan - Inbuilt to the above motherboard

Personal needs/requirements:
Wanted to check if the above can comfortably (no overclocking/overheating) do 1080p max setting gaming on recent games such as PUBG, Battlefield 1 and Total war series. Also would want to know if the above spec-ed PC can be relevant for the next 3 years to come with possible light 1440p gaming.

Considerations:
*Had to consider the mini as im looking for a small-medium casing chassis due to space constraints. But worried that the GPU as a mini form may not be as powerful as a normal and may impede performance and also cause hardware damages. I am also worried about there may be too much noise made by the PC as the specs may not be handle my requirements.

Thanks again for any advice rendered! :D

Hey there,

The specs is ok for the games you mentioned.

Maybe if space constraints allowed you can consider going for a small AIO.

Have you gotten your custom rig yet? If not, I may be able to help you out. I build and sell customized pcs so I can definitely hook you up if you want. Will be happy to advise and guide in anyway that I can along the way.

Let me know, Cheers

If your box is within an air conditioned room you have a box that can last you the three years you desire. Times can change but even till now I still hear of gaming rigs heating up with dust and fine particles accumulating within the fans because the machines are situated next to a bunch of mattresses and pillows. The problem is not the mini, it's consumer expectations.
