Micro atx on a budget

I wonder how someone still hasn't made a remix of everything he has dropped so far, poor Supermicro motherboards though :(

Everyone seems to go for the hyperthreaded pentium (which is great bought one for brother) so i threw together something with an i5 (499 price before rebates)

Here's my list:

Intel Pentium G4560 - $68.74
ASUS PRIME Z270M-PLUS MICRO ATX - $149.99
EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (4GB) - $149.99
WD Blue 1TB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM - $49.99
Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR4 DRAM 2400MHz - $57.99
EVGA 430 W1, 80+ WHITE 430W PSU - $34.64
Cooler Master N400 Case - $49.99
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - CPU Cooler [OPTIONAL] - $29.99

Although my list doesn't include shipping and/or tax and I didn't account for current rebates on any of the eligible items, so if you're willing to spend little more to future proof your rig, I feel you would be satisfied with the quality products on the list, not forcing you to have to settle with something outdated. You also have room to upgrade whenever you see fit in the future.

Like the case in fact i think i am ordering the smaller n200 version of it. The processor is a deal killer though i will be running windows 7 (cant not stand 8 or 10) and well thanks to the ass hats that control such things kaby lake processors have no windows 7 support.

Thanks for all the help so far I have

the case Cooler master N200
The Power supply Thermaltake Toughpower TPD-0750M - SLI / CrossFire 750 w
The HD WD black 320
The OS Windows 7 64 pro

Now that ryzen what are your thoughts about a pc based on it?

For under 500? The Ryzen 5 1400 is like what? 169$

Don't know what the price structure of the cheap-but-cheerful AM4 motherboards is.
