I want to build another pc for myself that is pretty tiny, but can still do some serious gaming. I am hoping to use a Mini-ITX mobo so i can make a build almost the size of a gaming console... hopefully. Im not sure what good mini mobos there are out there, but there has to be some. I plan on no overclocking, pretty much everything will be basic and simple. I dont really need usb 3.0, but it would be nice if i could, again, not necessary.
What ram would be good, as in very small, short, but still good at 1600mhz, im thinking 16gb. What about a good intel cpu? Would prefer one with low power draw, but still beefy performance. Obviously will need a very small case, simple, but with at least one 5.5" drive bay hopefully for movies, cd's, etc. disks.
I am worried mostly about the gpu, i still want pretty good performance, but it has to fit. Right now i have a GTX 660 SC, good enough for me, so i would need something like a 760 or slightly better, but again, it has to ultimately fit; what would be a good gpu for these needs? The psu also worries me, i know its going to be big, gonna take up a lot of space
So any recommendations for parts for this Mini-ITX gaming build? If i could fit a Micro-ATX build into a console sized rig, i would go for it, but i dont think a micro build would be small enough.
Please help me out, open to any and all feedback. Thanks!
