Hello all, I was going to upgrade my build but instead recently sold it and now have a little more case to work with... Would like to see a fx 8350 version of this build and any alterations of it in its current Intel form. Just wondering how much cash the amd version could save me. Also, if someone has a cooler mini itx case in mind I would love to hear about it. Thanks in advance!

Sidenote about the PSU. If there is a modular one around the same wattage that would help with wire management and look cool thatd be greattttttttttttt.
