Hi,

 

I am wanting to do a build in the future that involves taking apart an original xbox and building a pc inside of it

 

here are the parts I am planing on using

 

 
ASUS H81I-PLUS/CSM LGA1150 Mini ITX 2XSATA 6GB/S 2XSATA 3GB/S 1xPCIe16 Dual Channel Motherboard
 
 
Intel Core i5 4440 Quad Core 3.1GHZ Processor LGA1150 Haswell 6MB Cache Retail
 
 
Patriot Intel Extreme Master 16GB 2X8GB PC3-15000 DDR3-1866 10-11-10-30 1.5V Dual Channel Memory Kit
 
 
Western Digital WD10JPVX Blue 1TB SATA 6GB/S 8MB Cache 5400RPM 2.5in Notebook Hard Dr *IR-$5*
 
Mushkin Chronos 480GB 2.5in 7MM SATA3 SandForce SF-2281 SSD Solid State Disk Flash Drive 
 
 
ASUS GeForce GTX 670 DirectCU Mini 1006MHZ 2GB 6.0GHZ GDDR5 2xDVI HDMI DisplayPort PCI-E Video Card 
 
 
Scythe Big Shuriken 2 REV.B CPU Cooler Heatpipe Heatsink LGA2011/1366/1156/775/AM2AM3 120mm Slim Fan
 
 
I am wondering what psu to use as i need a small form factor one
 
extreme psu calculator says i only need 320 watts.. is this true 
 
i have already measured and a standard psu will be a tight fit

Silverstone makes a 450W Gold-certified SFX PSU, which is a smaller form factor.  Or there is a SeaSonic 350W gold-certified TFX12V PSU.

I'd get something like a ST45SF-G for the psu. 

 

Edit: Oh well, got ninja'ed by @Glenwing :ph34r:

SFX Modular PSU should be good. Silver stone has one. :D

As for the calculator the thing is pretty accurate, it actually adds more that you actually need cause it computes everything based on theory.not really based on test averages.
