Hi, im gonna build a small HTPC in a original xbox case and due to its size im having a dilema with the PSU choice so im wondering if any one can help me and let me know if a picoPSU 160W would run this system.

Motherboard: GIGABYTE F2A85XN-WIFI Mini-ITX (GA-F2A85XN-WIFI)
CPU: AMD A-Series A8 5600K Black Edition FM2 (AD560KWOHJBOX)
HDD: Seagate ST1000LM014 Momentus XT (ST1000LM014)
RAM: Corsair Memory Vengeance Jet Black Low Profile 4GB DDR3 1600 MHz (CML4GX3M2A1600C9)

I might also look to add a blu ray drive in the future but the above is the main system that is deffinate. If anyone can help with the knowledge of the picopsu or if anyone has done this kind of system before using an original xbox case.

Thanks,
Gary.

I've seen builds where people have stuffed Trinity APU's in Antec ISK's with 150W power supplies without issue.
