So I had some help from people on here but I mainly went with what the best ratings were on pcpartpicker.com. I just would like to know if the parts I picked even make sense even though the site says no compatibility flaws. Also, when I "price breakdown by merchant" it gives me some seriously cheaper sellers. Is it wise to follow that as far as you know? Heres what I have so far.

Any 1151 board will house your cpu. I like asus boards myself but thats me. I would get something like sabertooth or maximus because thats what i like and think would look good in a nice window system...

Not sure why your going with a mini itx in a nice temper glass atx case ? Plus i think you can get windows 10 for much cheaper. I seen on Paul's Hardware on you tube there a site that has cheap windows 10 keys that are 100% legit as far as i know. i think they only have oem which means you can upgrade everything but the mother board https://www.kinguin.net/

Also i was inpressed with the new Gigabyte boards with all the rgb but not sure about there reliabilty.
