You could free up a bit of $ by going with a 3600 or lower, and cheaper motherboard.

 

Also, generic cases have gotten pretty damn good, many $50-60 cases are fully functioned and a joy to build in.

If you don’t have a video card you are better off getting a 10700 and intel mobo. The 10700 is a bit cheaper, but those savings will likely be spent on a cooler. Otherwise they are roughly the same except you save the purchase of a cheap graphics card.
