It's way too early for this build. Revisit this thread about two weeks before you're ready to buy everything.

But how small do you want it: mATX tower? mATX desktop? mITX desktop?
 
Are you ready to buy everything now? If not, let's wait until two weeks before you're ready to order and revisit this thread then.
