mITX advice

[Naty722]

Hi everyone,

 

I'm planning on taking my old ATX build and putting it into an mITX form-factor as there really is really no reason for it to be ATX other than it was my first build and the building room as nice. I'm planning on giving this to my parents as they really need a new computer, and I want something as small and low profile as possible, while being able to use most of my old parts.

 

My current parts:

i5-2500k (stock cooler is the only thing I have left over for it)

Asus P8-P67 Deluxe MB (obviously needs to be replaced)

EVGA GTX 560 (8.25in/210mm)

Raidmax 850W PSU (I think it's 165mm or something like that)

Samsung 830 Pro SSD 256GB

1TB Hitachi HDD

Asus DVD drive

 

Honestly, it would be nice to keep everything but the case and motherboard, so ideally I'm looking for advice on those two items that could accommodate the above parts. I was thinking something like the CoolerMaster 110 looked good. However, some of the Silverstone ones looked really nice and was wondering if anyone had advice about those (the ML07 looks great if my 560 will fit). I know those usually require a small form factor PSU, but I'd be willing to get one since my current one is overkill anyway.

 

I don't know anything about good mITX motherboards so advice on that would be great.

 

This will not be for anything really intense. I'd like to throw my 560 in there since I have it, and my dad has gamed in the past, but he doesn't really care about graphics. This is mostly for web browsing, MS Office work and the like.

 

My budget isn't super strict but I would like to keep it fairly low since this isn't an enthusiast machine of any sorts. (US dollars)

 

Finally, I'd like to order ASAP (like today) so any quick advice is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

You could just get the cheapest 1155 itx motherboard you can find and sticking it all in the Elite 110.
