Hi

Thanks for that, what sort of PSU & case would be advised for this little lot to go in?

A good case would be the Antec 900, around £70.

A cost effective case (but still decent) would be the Jeantech Phong 2, around £30-£40.

Psu, I'd recommend a 500w. You'd get away with a decent 400w but why have it running near peak all the time.

Coolermaster realpower is a cost effective, stable option.

Enermax Liberty DXX 500w would be my recommendation.
