Hi, looking to make an SFF build. An APU and no GPU would be enough. Ryzen 7 5700G.

The parameters are:


1. parts easy to source and not too crazy expensive

looking for advice on what are the most common, mass available SFF parts, case and so on for an AM4 APU build. I have access to Aliexpress. Amazon orders are not available here. I'm based in Europe. I am looking for the most modular options.

2. dimensions

looking for the smallest form i can get, that is easy to source. Ideally that would fit in a backpack. Smallest mini itx (or nano itx) there is for AM4.

3. optional 

looking for one with external power brick


What parts would you reccomend? Also some generic tips? Is it smart to go for 5700G or wait for the next platform AM5 APU?

thanks
