[maxy7656]

My Current System:
Cpu: Amd FX 8320@4.8Ghz

Cpu Cooler: Hyper 212 Evo

GPU: Gigabyte Mini Itx Gtx 970

RAM: 2x8GB Kingston Ram @2133mhz

MotherBoard: Asus M5 A97 LE R2.0

SSD: 250GB Samsung 850 Evo

HDD: 2tb Western Digital Blue Hard Drive

Case: NZXT H400 Mid Tower

PSU: Corsair 600w CX

Os: Windows 8.1 PRO

I am looking to upgrade to a Mini-ITX System Because I need it for Mobil use. I use my pc for mainly gaming but sometimes i Edit Videos and render them [Light Video Editing ] I would love it if people would post comments down below on systems i should build. My Upgrade Budget is $520 Maximum, But i would like it around $460.

Thx-

Do you intend to reuse any of your current hardware? If so, what do you intend to keep? For mini-ITX, you will be wanting to look at Intel. There are no AM3+ Mini-itx boards, and FM2+ cpus would be a downgrade.

Yeah, this disappointed me as well because I made all my PCs Mini-ITX, but I couldn't do that for my 2 year old AMD build :/

You can keep most of what you have though and still fit it in to a mini ITX, just not the CPU, Cooler, and Mobo.
