cpu: Amd Fx-8370
gpu: Msi r9 380 (current one) 

Ram: kingston 8gb 1333mhz ddr3
Motherboard: amd 970 gaming
psu: be quiet! Pure Power 11 600W

Planing to change old gpu r9 380 to used rx 580 8gb for 100€, is it worth it? Won't my cpu be bottle necking the gpu?

kinda, depending on the game. Although if you want a better GPU now and upgrade the CPU later, you won't have to worry.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Sounds like a good deal. Worst case you upgrade your CPU later.
