I am trying to build a basic HTPC/Web browsing PC for my sister out of parts laying around. I want to re-use an old Lenovo SFF desktop. It will use an E5300 CPU, and 4GB of DDR2. The problem is that I want to re-use this old case and PSU. It is only a 240w PSU, and there are no power connectors (not even an extra HDD connector).
So, I need to find:
Low Power: Can't use external power, therefore fanless and we are limited to 70% of 240w PSU.
Low Profile: This is a small SFF case, and won't support a card taller than a low profile mounting bracket.
Cheap: I would like to keep it under $30, including used prices.
The only real requirement is being able to drive a single monitor/TV at 1080p...
