you have the wrong type of mb for your build. the itx are very small mb for small foot print cases. your using a full size case so you can use a full size mb and save 20.00. on the cpu swapped the older 4670k for the newer 4690 same price.
with newer mb you want two matched dimm. for 2 channel ram mode with one dimm you lose some of the ram speed as the mb stuck in one channel mode. also haswell run better on faster ram.swapped out the ssd dont know how good the scandisk ssd are. swapped out the power supply with a gold rated unit for a few dollars more. the gold unit is fullu modular. (only need to plug in the cables you need) better cable management. also the cx line not haswell support. if yu put the system into sleep mode is will shut off.
