I made the change from a NZXT ATX case to the Meshroom S V2, with a TUF Gaming 3090 and a R9 5900X, as someone who has come from being a conosole gamer all his life, the SSF builds are my thing and I'm never going back to an ATX cases.
I've always been with PC, since my parents got an inspiron from Dell, then whenever I got my job back when I was 15, I got a ryzen 5 5600 with a 3070 and it was great, but like any other ATX ff, it's big for no reason!! All that air and for what?!
If you need like a portable smaller PC, then yea SFF ofc. However most people probably just keep their PC on a desk or under it. You probably can find space for a decent atx case. I like functional cases, no rgb, whatever aesthetics might be nice to look at. I prefer lots of drive space, a case good to work with. Ive tried going smaller, bought myself a 850w coolermaster v3 sfx. It has horrible coil whine. AP201 case fully mesh, microatx build. So my experience with going smaller is problematic, other ppl tho might have a better experience. You gotta always do research on what you are buying to know the quality. This is why i will probably instead buy a full tower next, so i have mostly everything, good cable management, drive slots, room for atx mobo, probably even a sas hba card. Since there are some really cheap sas drives in amazon sometimes. Example 6 tb sas drive for 50 euros. And they are usually older refurbished enterprise drives. So far ive had one for multiple months, works fine. With what i am doing, running multiple drives and always having at least a couple of HDDs for backups ive decided on going bigger.
And that's perfectly okay! There's been nothing wrong with ATX as every form factor has its audience and value to the individual. I grew out of the ATX/m-ATX, BUT DONT GET ME WRONG! Atx is fantastic for holding sata SSDs, HDDs, m.2s, larger GPUs, fans for cooling, and of course, better options in the atx life than SFF since there's limitations on what's available in terms of quality when going smaller. Edit: ATX/m-ATX
Definitely plan on making a build with AMDs x3D chips! I definitely do agree in the performance of those chips. Top tier for gaming, I haven't really seen how they do with editing software but I'm sure with the extra cache it's better than any i9.

Ryzen 7 9800X3D is the build you should try next . Things a beast and shits on intel performance atm
