I'm refitting an ammo can into an atom based HTPC. Mobo includes a 90w brick, and I need to know if it's sufficient:
Mobo: ZOTAC IONITX-A-U
RAM: 2 Sticks DDR2
Storage: 2.5" SSD for OS and SAMSUNG Spinpoint F4 HD204UI 2TB for media
Optical: USB slim sata dvd (USB powered)
USB mouse/keyboard
120mm LED fan
32gb USB thumb drive
Am I pushing the limits of what this tiny PSU is capable of or am I safe with this setup? Almost forgot, I won't be using the onboard wifi in the mini pci-e slot so I can remove that to conserve power.
/edit: I'm guestimating total power requirements to be in the vicinity of 70-75W.
