Hi All,
I need some recommendations on what mobo and case better suit these 2 1660ti and i5-9400f. Remember, this is for mini-itx. Also, please not so expensive recommendations. Thanks!

Ideally you'd want the Asrock B365 ITX as it would support the 9th gen without requiring a BIOS update but it doesn't seem to be sold currently at any reputable site.

You could go with a Z390 ITX board however it's more then you'd need and it's going to cost a bit more.

Edit: This Z390 ITX is actually a pretty good price.

That being said you might be able to find a B360/H370 ITX board with updated BIOS, just contact the retailer and see if they can help you with that.

Edit: AVADirect seems to have it in stock but I've never purchased anything from them nor know much about them.

This is what I'd get for the case, it will support a good aftermarket cooler such as the CM EVO 212 Black and some fans for improved airflow.
