Haswell Mini-itx build.

EDIT: M-ATX NOT I-TX

 

Hello, I am looking to build a mini-itx haswell build for as little USD as possable. I do need a monitor but i can use it as a sort of htpc in my room with the TV. 

 

Heres a nice list of what i'd like.

 

My use case is gameing and watching YouTube and Twitch, My current computer cant run 1080P on youtube or anything on twitch without having a heart attack. Litterally.

 

[Yes]

1. Mini-itx. [Not something like a core 1000 but cases from fractal would be ok]

2. AMD GPU [if nvida would be better chose that.]

3.Windows 7.5 [Dont need to buy 8 as i have a copy digitally that i can use to clone.]

4.Gryphen MOBO [id say this is a requirement]

 

[No]

1. ATX

2. 3.5 drives [1/2 in this one]

 

This is waht i have: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/14CnE

 

 

Thanks,

Any real hard top end budget, or is $650ish like in your link the max?

I'm just a soul who is up to no good.

Hold up i just realized the Asus Gryphen board isnt an Mini-ITX board, it's an M-ATX board.

Is there any components i should avoid with this? I chose asus beacuse the board is waht made me want intel, and the fanxpert II with quick overclocks as im a first time builder.
