Build Advice FM2+ Mini-itx build advice?

Hello

I would appreciate comments on a build that I've been thinking about for a while. Its purposes are low end - some transcoding via handbrake and light gaming. Toddlers and gaming don't mix I'm afraid.

I have built a few PCs before. My current build is being passed on to the in-laws to replace a very aged Socket 754 Athlon 64.

A few points of note:
- I am in New Zealand. This means many parts you may have access to simply aren't available here. Point in case: the mini-ITX Gigabyte FM2+ board is the only mini-ITX FM2 board in the country. www.pricespy.co.nz shows what is here.
- I've always built AMD, and after a lot of thought I'm going to stick with them. They might be getting slaughtered, but I'm all for the little guy. Given I am aiming for a small cheap build, I am opting for an FM2 APU rather than AM3.
- I'm happy with AMD integrated graphics - figure I can always slot in a graphics card later.

So anyway, the parts I am looking at, using PCPartPicker as it works:

My thoughts, questions and questions -

1. Does this build work? Any known issues with the motherboard, case, cooler working together?
2. I would prefer the A10-7800 but am really struggling on the price/performance front for that one.
3. I wont be overlocking, so am looking to get the 2133 speed memory, balancing off cost and timings.
4. The case - definitely the biggest thing I am on the fence about. Am open to suggestions.
5. The cooler - I'm looking for better than stock, but fits the case and cheap. Quiet is important too.
6. Not planning on an optical drive

And before someone says it, yes I could go with something like a Pentium G3258 and a low-mid end graphics card. Trying to stick with AMD though!

Many thanks in advance!

Other things:
Budget - no set budget, I have the money but no desire to spend more than I have to.
Main uses of intended build: small amount of transcoding, relatively light gaming.
Parts required: As above - all components of a desktop PC
Previous build information (list details of parts): N/A as it all being given away, but it was an Athlon X2 250 with Radeon 5750
Monitor resolution: 1980x1080
Storage requirements: 250 gig is fine - just used for gaming and some light (cloud files) storage
Will you be overclocking: no
Any motherboard requirements (no. of USB, Xfire/SLI, fan headers): nothing major. USB3 headers and back ports.
Extra information about desired system: see above - small, quiet.

 

If you're happy with it I'd say go for it. Everything looks fine and you did well with the price
