a test made by xbitlabs.com shows how much Power APU's draw!
AMD speaking, the test was made on a FULL ATX mainboard --> GIGABYTE GA-A75-UD4H FM1 ATX
Proof --> Here
Now, when performing a CPU and GPU burn test at the same time on the A6-3500 APU,
we see that it draws ~82.2W
And when playing a 1080P movie, the A6-3500 will draw ~32.5W
So overall, im positive that the ISK100/110 HTPC cases
with their included 80W PSU will both be able to handle the A6-3500 APU on a mini-ITX system!!
And even if you went with a full atx mainboard,
it's unlikely that you'll stress your HTPC the same way the guys over xbitlabs.com did during their tests..
