Hi! I was wondering if there was a mini-ITX motherboard that would go well with a AMD-FX 8350 processor? I'm new to this so any answers will be appreciated. Oh yeah and i was wondering if there was a good GPU that would fit into a Cooler Master Elite 110? Thanks!

Incorrect on Intel being your only choice, they DO make modern ITX boards for AMD. The problem is that they don't make AM3+ boards in ITX format, the probably reason being power draw. Most AM3+ processors are 100W+ processors and that's a lot of power for a small board.

The do have some AM3 boards (Jetway and some company named Giada), problem is they won't support the FX-8000 series.

If you were instead to go with a FM2+ APU, they make several for the AMD A10-xxxx series, ASRock FM2A88X-ITX+ is one, Gigabyte GA-F2A88XN-WIFI is another. Of course, that would require a different processor, but the AMD APU's have much better integrated graphics.

You asked about a small form factor GPU, IIRC Gigabyte also makes a GTX 750ti low profile card which is pretty decent, only issue is it recommends a 400w PSU.

What would be a good intel processor to use? One that would be good and cost efficient for a $750 dollar build? I was basing this first time build from the Meson http://austinnotduncan.com/builds/meson/ (link if you need to see).
