Hey,

This is most probally a stupid question but need an answer so I can order a Case :D

Looking at these two

Antec Micro Fusion 350 HTPC Case with Remote

and

Antec ISK 300-65 mITX Case - Black

If i place an ION board and hdd into both would they draw the same amount of power, e.g. 30watts from the wall.

The reason i ask is because one has a 350 watt "normal" power supply and the other has a 65 watt "PICO" power supply. Try to make the most engery efficient htpc I can.

Am i right to think that the powersupply will only "draw" what it needs for power and not have overheads etc?

Cheers
