If you go mITX and want a low-mid-range nVidia GPU nothing less than a Sugo SG05 will do, and even then you wouldn't want to be OCing anything! A compact mATX system will be twice the size and weight. At least :eek: And there's just no realistic way to fit the GPU and Sandy in a tiny €600 budget.
If you can rely on integrated alone there are smaller, lighter enclosures you can get away with. No OCing due to H67 mobo but you wouldn't have a lrage enough PSU or thermal envelope to do so anyway

There are some mITX cases that use oversized external power bricks like the XBox360 (the older versions of which had power bricks going up to 180W!) which is all you need if you're running a frugal quad, one HDD, DVD and integrated audio and graphics

What do you guys think of this build??
Its not from the german website but this site seems to have most of the components in stock, especially the two most important bits, the case and the motherboard!!
I probably have blown my budget by around 200eur but if that means I don't need to worry about upgrading the computer for the next couple of years then it should be worth it I suppose!0 -
Looks good, but that HD5750 is horribly overpriced, and the whole point was so you wouldn't need the 450W version of the Sugo.
HD5750 + SG05 300W = WIN
GTX550 + SG05 300W = FAIL
HD5750 + SG05 450W = FAIL
GTX550 + SG05 450W = WIN
Also note that a K-series CPU is useless for mITX at the moment, until Z68-based mITX mobos appear all LGA1155 mITX offerings cannot be OCd. An i5-2400 is only a tiny bit slower and a lot cheaper in most places (the non-OCable i5-2500 is weirdly expensive for some reason...). It also uses even less power than a stock i5-2500(K). Heck, if you didn't OC anything you could run a stock GTS450 or even HD6850 (quite a jump upward in power over the 57*0/450/550!) with it quite happily on the 300W PSU
