Im gonna build a small computer that i can use as a console. (With xbox360 controllers)

I picked prosessor and gpu but the rest of the parts is hard to choose.

•CPU: AMD FM2 Athlon X4 750k Black Edition FM2, Quad Core, 3.4Ghz

•GPU: GIGABYTE R7 260X 2GB

Some help?

I think i want 8gb of ram and 2tb harddrive storage. Also a bluray reader and writer.

And i want to try putting all this in a very small case, playstation size.

Any recomendations?
