Hello everyone,
I would like to build a system, and the goal is to build it as silent as I can and as small as I can while it should still be able to play games at a decent speed and quality (high to medium settings for Far Cry 3 as an example). My initial build is the following:
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/9Zmkbv
It also includes the Cooler Master 352 as a case, but that does not exist on the site.
As you see there I have as a power supply the Seasonic M12II-520 EVO Edition Bronze 520W (SASS520GM2). After a while I noticed that pcpartpicker says the max power consumption for the components I chose was 360W or about there and thought that something akin to Seasonic Platinum Fanless 400W (SASS400FL2) or Seasonic G Series 450W (G-450 (SSR-450RM)) would be better: less power consumption, less noise, less heat.
I must mention that I don't intend to overclock any of the components or get a second GPU.
The question: Do you think I would have any trouble if I'd get one of the smaller options? Would the 400w PS be enough to sustain the system?
Any suggestions would be welcome but the budget must be around $1000-$1100.
