Hai,

I am currently looking into building a pc,
Here is the partpicker link: http://nz.pcpartpicker.com/p/ZPvc3C

Not really sure about the mobo. Please let me know if the current one is compatible with the selected case. If not, please suggest something of similar price. Any advice is appreciated.

regarding the r9 380, for me (in New Zealand) i found that the gtx 960 4gb was cheaper, 20 bucks cheaper. I also would like to use the shadowplay feature (record every x minutes), if amd cards have something similar to this, let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Thanks for your answer.
Why change the powersupply? was the other one bad quality or...

Also, will micro atx mobos fit into atx cases?
Some people say it won't, I'm not sure.
im a noob at this pc building stuff.

Thanks in advance.

I changed the power supply due to the fact that it was pretty much an unknown unit with next to no reviews on it, so you can't tell what quality it is.

They will fit in ATX cases just fine, in fact, if you really wanted to for some reason, you could put a m-ITX motherboard in an ATX case
