Super-mobile mini itx gaming pc - thoughts?

[furphy]

After centuries of researching, I have created my dream mini-itx gaming pc. I'm relatively new to computer building, and this will be my first build from scratch, so what I'm asking for here is advice or suggestions and such.

PicoPSU + adapter: http://www.mini-box.com/picoPSU-160-XT-192W-Adapter-Power-Kit

First of all, the power question. I checked my setup on eXtreme psu calculator and it recommended a 165w (115w minimum) psu AFTER I set the calculator to include 2 usb devices, 2 80mm fans, and 100% system load and cpu utilization. The picopsu comes with a 192w adapter that claims =>87% efficiency. 192 x 0.87 = 167.04, which is more than 165w. Not by much, but that is including 2 usbs and fans, and I will probably use only 1 usb and 1 fan, if that.

Also, should I get 1x8gb instead? so I can upgrade to 16gb later if I wanted? I always see gaming builds having 16gb of ram, but is it really needed?

ALSO, is an ssd worth the money? I'm definitely not buying one right now because I'm on a tight budget, but if it is worth it, I'll get like a 120gb later for booting.

Other than all that, advice is very welcome as this is will be first build from scratch.

No,there's hardly any games requiring 16GB RAM,Yeah SSD is worth the money,they're completely silent,looks prettier and surely lightning fast in comparison to HDDs.

Good to know i don't need 16gb ram. Also nice to hear that ssds are as fast as they are said to be, thanks!

Nobody else has any thoughts?

On another note, i found a couple cpu coolers that fit my needs. I thought the vanxie was one of a kind, but i found a cooler by silverstone and a cooler by evercoool that are both small enough and can handle enough tdp for my build.

Does anyone have experience with these? I kinda want to get the evercool one because it has a 95w tdp, and I might upgrade in the future. But I heard that it gets loud.
