Hello guys,
I have finally decided to build my own HTPC at long last
This is what I have decided on as I am on a tight budget:
Case: Lian Li PC-Q07
SSD: Crucial SSD
RAM: G Skills
CPU: A6-3670K
Mobo: Asrock A75M-ITX FM1
So my question is what kind of psu can I use for this case? I am looking for a silent system and am aware a way to achieve this is by a fanless psu . Will a Pico PSU work here?.
Also do you think I can get away without another cooling fan for this 100W TDP APU in this large case? or do i need a 65W TDP ( A6-3500) to achieve this?
My main use for the system is full 3D bluray playback, all HD movies and able to handle multi-tasking easily with smooth browsing in XBMC with heavy skins
Thanks
