Hello, I am building a really cheap rig for myself and am not too sure if the 250w powersupply is enough to power this rig:

CPU/GPU/MB: Asus E35M1-M Deluxe mini-ITX MB
On Board Fusion APU, AMD® FCH A50 (Hudson M1)

RAM: 2GB Corsair VS2GB1333D3 Value Select (1333MHz) DDR3 RAM

Tower/PSU: Aywun 1001 Mini-ITX Cube Case with SFX 250W PSU

Optical Drive: - LG GH22NS50 DVD SATA Burner

---------------------------------------------------------

I might later upgrade to 4GB of ram, and add on a PCI-e Graphics card like HD 5450 512MB.
Will this power supply be enough at the moment? and what power supply should i get when i upgrade.

Thank You.


(NOT TOO SURE ON WHICH HARD DRIVE TO GET YET!)
 
Solution
The PSU will power the rig fine, as long as you remember to upgrade to decent 300W~350W PSU when you add the extra RAM and the graphics card.

Okay thank you :)

With the case i am getting, is the power supply small? and will i have to get mini-itx power supplies? or does the case take normal sized ATX powersupplies?

Yes, they aren't the conventional PSU's (thus less known and less available). I don't see why Newegg or someplace won't stock them though. You should just make sure you get the right size when purchasing a new PSU.
