Hi everyone,
I've never built a SFF PC, so I'm wondering if you could help me or point me to the best places for me to help myself.
I'm currently looking at a few possible shuttle cases (SB61G2, SN45G, SN85G4 V2) depending on which CPU I decide on, and I'd be hoping to use a Sapphire Radeon X800 PRO 256MB GDDR3 video card. I know the shuttle PSUs have a lower power rating than most larger ATX cases, so I was just wondering if there will be enough power for this video card (I will also have one CD-RW/DVD combo drive, and one hard drive)? I'm also wondering if the card will fit in the small case?
I know the X800 PRO only has the one power connector, and isn't all that big as far as video cards go, but just wanted to check with the experts before starting to buy components.
Thanks.
