So I'm moving and its gonna be about 4 months before I actually am able to get my current gaming down to my new place, so in the meantime I'm looking to build a light gaming pc, nothing more than csgo and maybe civ 5. Just wondering if I should go with an apu or cpu + gpu. Also I was hoping it could be itx sized

I didn't forget anything. The Intel HD graphics are way better than the minimum recommended specs for either of those games. I can can play Fallout 4 with mine.

The is what i built my brother: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/HkcswP The front ports on the case are usb 3.0 but the mobo doesent have 3.0 headers but you can get an adapter it will run cs:go just fine an civ 5 perfectly fine farcry 4 does pretty good on it too and it will run fallout 4 fine. I didnt add an hdd for you because i dont know what you want but all the parts will work fine together you could add an aftermarket cooler and make it quiter its a way under your budget for me it was 270 usd which is about 380 cnd.
