I hope this is in the right category...If not my apologies mods.
Anyway, I love small form factor cases(Silverstone has to be my favorite ...not the best for high end gaming, but I'm OK with that.)
I would be using the following build for pretty much
#: Everyday Use--(surfing the web,streaming/downloading music)
#: Online Schooling--(Possible Web Cam live streaming,using Photoshop/Illustrator CS6 or CC)
#: Light Gaming--(I play League of Legend&skyping at the same time...I do enjoy Mass Effect series and want to look into Elder Scrolls Online...I may twitch eventually)
but I was wondering how this build looks for that...I would be doing just one of these at a time...If I twitch might run music as I play.
HERE IT IS:

the budget is right at the limit...bit over, but doable.
The custom parts are from Amazon.com, I'm from the USA so they may not show up if from. other countries...I couldn't find a slim DVD drive that was the "slip in" kind nor a power source that I KNEW for sure wound fit...this one seems to fit the bill: the Silverstone Tek 450-Watts SFX Form Factor Full Modular Power Supply with 80 Plus Gold(the case calls for a PSU no bigger than 180mm...not sure on all detentions...Wattage says its pulling 322W, out of 450W(plus monitor, so if I needed to spend a bit more for a larger one that was modular as well that's fine).
Update(fast I know): I found the SILVERSTONE ST55F-G 550W ATX 80+Gold ...cheaper too!
I don't plan on OCing for heat issues (even with the Zalman LQ-310 and positive air flow and the Video card is a blower style following the airflow up top ).
Well that and the fact that I'm not really versed in that knowledge. Unless its needed(and the card is unlocked).
All that aside I was wondering if I needed any extra cables for the drives or anything else really... Also, I was wondering if the cords for the PSU are optimized for a smaller case(for management) or if I had to buy them separate.
I did not mean for such a long post. If you've made it this far and plan on giving feed back.Thank you...
