After 6.5 years I decided to repurpose my i7-4790K to be my new permanent server and build a new PC in a Mini ITX form factor.

NZXT has always offered high-quality cases for a low price, so I went with the NZXT H210.

Originally, I was going to buy the i7-9600K because of the high rating on cpu.userbenchmark.com but I managed to get a really good deal on the RAM and CPU at the MicroCenter in Cambridge by buying refurbished parts.

The Graphics card and SSD were from my old PC but fit perfectly into the purple, black, and white pattern that I was going for.

The motherboard was the last part I ordered. Since the Z390 ITX was not in-stock anywhere, I was lucky to find this cheap on Amazon refurbished with fast shipping. It arrived on the day I built the PC. There are small scratches on the heat sink but who cares! Thanks to whoever returned that board, you saved me a lot of money.

I went with a fully modular power supply so that I didn't have too many wires hanging free in the bottom of the case. I bought from EVGA because I have never had any issues with their products in the past. The 2070 Super that I bought from them off Newegg was refurbished but it came looking brand new.

I recommend that anyone with a similar build path, try and connect everything to the motherboard before screwing it into the case. It was a PAIN getting all the wires connected with minimal room for fingers.
