yeah an AMD is highly preferable, you'd need to change the motherboard, but the rest looks good, remove bullguard its trouble the inbuilt windows defender is way better and free, and change to silver warranty.
If you've ordered this what you'll have to do is put a spec together using the AMD configurator, produce a quote from it then give them a call and explain that you would like to change order from intel to AMD and give them the quote number for the AMD build

Probably would help others on this forum if you could define your budget and what sort of monitor you are pairing it with. Otherwise it's essentially guesswork.
