The question is if this is a real 130W psu or not or does it deliver its rated power or not. Get a new psu

I have a 550w power supply first off, the case I linked has one.

The 130w provided should be fine considering a similar system has been made shown in the reviews.

Heat may be an issue though and you may want to use a cooler running cpu.

The NH-L9i isn't much better than the stock cooler.

The issue isn't the cpu cooler but the lack of a chassis fan.

hmmm isn't the i3 the lowest cpu you can use in a hackintosh?

Celerons and Pentiums work.

There are also lower TDP i3's like the 4130T.

I already have the 4130, guess I'll just have to go with a larger case.
