- Lower end mobo since you have locked CPU and won't need overclock features.
- SSD!!!
- Cheaper case but it's still really nice. Check out some pics of it :)
- upgraded to next tier GPU :)
- Capstone is awesome PSU (designed by SuperFlower like the EVGAs) and 750W overkill.

A few questions about it: Say I do get a micro ATX MOBO; would that limit me in terms of parts that I could upgrade in the future, like maybe getting a bigger Video Card? In other words, for my build and for future upgrades is a micro ATX all I really need?

I agree on that SSD, but it didn't really fit my budget.
