No such thing!
ATX/mATX/mITX are motherboard form factors that have nothing to do with the processor or power supply.
If you need suggestions for specific components, find the specific components you are interested in and post them here

1) Don't use that power supply, it's garbage. Get the Seasonic S/M 12II 520W, it's only $50 and will last you forever.
2) You're missing the memory, hdd/ssd, and operating system
3) No need to buy a separate cooler for that chip
4) They should fit in the case just fine, though it's a pretty lackluster build to begin with.
What's your budget and need?

Motherboard will fit into case.
CPU is not compatible with the motherboard.
About Graphics card - would need to know specific model name. Case supports graphics cards up to 375mm in length.

Cancel the order or return, that's the easiest way. You really need to do your research before even thinking about buying parts!

But i already have a Hard drive with w10 on it
That means jack shit unless you have a LICENSE for it. If your computer was prebuilt, the chance of that is zero. If you had a Win 10 retail license, you're good to go, just reactivate. If you had a retail license of 7 or 8.1 which you updated to 10, you'll need to link the OS to your microsoft account NOW, and then use that license on the new computer (requires anniversary update)

So since i have a Product ID for windows, it was a factory cpu ( used to be 8.1 now im w10 ) im good to go? i just have to use that ID to transfer the License to my other cpu? But i have to do the Prior to my new cpu.
