What are you using the PC for?

The mobo is ATX and will not fit in a micro-atx case!

Don't use the PSU in the case, it wont last long and the 8320 is not as good as the 8350. You'd be better with that, the 6300 or an i5/7.

editing, this was recommended from other threads, and okay can you tell me a cheap one i can use, because i did have one but it dissapeared from the site :/. im not looking to change the build just need the case really.
 

the thing is i will be rendering videos as im a youtuber and editing on sony vegas and such, i would also like the ability to play games like minecraft no big games so to me 16 gb is helpfull as well as 8 cores for editing at least thats what i have been told
 
You can run minecraft off any old IGP so a GPU won't be needed ;)

Its only on graphical games you would need a GPU. I don't think Vegas uses CUDA as well so having a Nvidia card wouldnt speed up the process.
 
I would stil stick with the PD he had it has 8 cores for rendering which he needs and the 7770 is there just if he needs to game its better to get that over an igp in a quad core

okay as you can tell im pretty new to this haha :), and i do plan on playing some big games but really not often, and minecraft will be played with a modpack so could become quite tasking or am i mistaken?

okay thankyou i still probably will stick, with the case and the power supply the other person recommended it should all fit and be dandy
 
I know minecraft with one texture pack runs fine on my HD4000 (IGP for the 3570K) not sure what the AMD ones are like other than their APU's.

A 7770 would be useful if your playing other games though.
