You guys helped me build another machine with a similar budget back in April and now I am back again looking to build another comparable machine using a similar budget.
This time I realized I have a DEEPCOOL TESSERACT SW Mid Tower case that I purchased a few years ago that I think could be used for this build. (Obviously, it doesn't save much budget but every little bit helps, right.)
The last machine I built used these parts:

I've got a $1200 budget and it looks like the power supply I used for the last machine isn't available currently.
What additional performance upgrades can I squeeze out of this?
