Hello Overclockers! I require some help and I am building my first mini itx budget gaming rig, heres what I got so far! my budget was around £350-£450

Cooler Master Elite 130 case £37
AsRock FM2A85X-ITX Motherboard (Socket FM2) £68
AMD Athlon X4 760k Black Edition Quad Processor (Socket FM2, 3.8GHz) £65
Arctic Cooling Alpine 64 Pro CPU Cooler £8
Asus HD 7770 2GB £99
Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 1600 Mhz £68
Western Digital 1TB internal Hard Drive - Caviar Blue (3.5 inch) £45

Now my question is what kind of PSU is needed to power this setup?
And what do you think of this setup for my budget range? maybe there are better options?

also I'm only looking to max out and play MMO + RTS games such as Guild Wars 2, Company of heroes 2, etc etc!
all help is most appreciated!

Thanks

Hi, thanks for the reply, it does not have to be itx at all, I just liked the compact size thats all :) that build you listed me there does certainly look much better for the money.

One question, will I need to buy additional fans? I don't plan on overclocking but I don't want to have temp issues.

thanks
