Nice and small build!

Although they have no stock of it, have you considered the Asus F1A75-I DELUXE?

Since it has build in WIFI, you'd have less cables lying around.

Yeah I am consideing it cause of WiFi and Bluetooth built. It's really hard to find though.

I just may wait for the FM2 socket baords for the upcoming APUs to see what they bring to the table. Other than maybe 2166 RAM support or similar little things, I don't expect them to offer greater than the Asus one above.

When will the new boards launch?

If you're not in a hurry it may be worth the waiting, if only to see the older boards to become cheaper.

Supposedly August is when it all comes together. OEMs have the Trinity chips already so they will start showing up in stores in laptops and desktops any day now, but the stanalone chips are a month away.

If the A10 5800K doesn't show the 30% better performance AMD is promissing over current A8 3870K, I wouldn't have any issues buying a A8 3870K for under 100 bucks (129 currently).

But early benchmarks on Toms Hardware look good

With a 6670 in crossfire, 5800k chip should have no issues doing 30-40 fps on most games in 1080p, with 720p to fall back on in extreme circumstances.
