Is that crown value calculated from the 550USD?

I'd swap that GTX960 for an R9 285 if you intend to keep using that case, it's usually cheaper and is a bit better

Or if you want to step up to the Elite 130 you can get an R9 280 or 280X for a similar price to the 960 which will destroy it.

And before someone says "amd cards are too hot for itx"...

They aren't. I run one just fine.
