Not enough. And basically not worth it.

Lastly itx board aint cheap. And you are basically gonna downgrade?

Take note that your current chip allows you to do overclocking.

$100 chassis can be settled by the CM130 at $89

But the mobo $100 you cant even buy a good itx board. UNLESS you wanna live without overclocking. Which imo is pointless.

It is definitely compatible. Is just that you won't be able to fit in the case.

You will need a larger chassis for a heatsink unless you go for low profile heatsink.

See whether MSI z87i has been released or not. I will be in SLS later. I will see whether has it landed.

Can try fractal design arc mini r2.. though it is slightly smaller than the arc midi r2, in which it is slightly smaller than r4.

Or bitfenix prodigy M for matx boards.
