TL:DR, It is for portability and couch gaming

I basically put together a Small Form Factor Build so that I can Carry it around to play video games to almost any where I go. I am not a huge fan First Person Shooters and I do like the Duashock 3 which would serve as its controller. I will use a Wireless KB/M set for other purposes with the system. It will be used mostly for 1080P 60fps gaming with Virtual Super Resolution used for better picture quality. Usually it will be with my TV but I will also carry it around to my friends' place for gaming like I stated  before.

i wouldn't use the term console killer anymore at this price point. Are you sure it fits all in there? I'd personally would go with something like the pc05 from lian li if you want to spend the money

4. get EVGA G2 / XFX Pro Gold

Requires either external or to cut a pretty nice sized hole in the case to fit it.

1. get normal 6600

2. get H170 or B150 Motherboard

3. an 8GB RAM will do any game

4. get EVGA G2 / XFX Pro Gold

High -End HTPC

PSU Doesn't fit

More games like battlefront recommends 16 GB ram
