Proposing new ITX system

Post by EvoFire » Fri Jun 11, 2010 7:34 pm

So I got a job to build a new m-ITX system for someone. I have the following list of parts, I think it should be fine, but I want some opinions from here.

Lian Li Q08B
Intel DQ57TM mATX LGA1156 Q57
Intel Core i5 750
Corsair 4GB DDR3
Seasonic M12 650W
XFX 5850
some SSD
Seagate 7200.12 1TB
Samsung DVD writer
Scythe Big Shuriken

There will be no overclocking, however, not looking to underclock either. I do worry if the Big Shuriken is adequate to cool the i5 quietly though I don't see anything much bigger fitting in there, and definitely not tower sinks.

Thanks
