Do you have to reuse that tiny case? It will severly limit what hardware will fit inside.

Heres an example of what could be done with a micro atx system.

An atx case will limit your cooling potential but lets see. I assume as you want it mobile, you will want WiFi, as such I did choose the x570 chipset, only because the other boards do not have a bios flash button and unless the seller flashes it for you, you wouldn't be able to.

I assume you kept the PCIe riser that came with the case.

Faster RAM for only another couple bucks. 1440p 144z monitor with Freesync + AMD gpu = butter.
