I decided to get a 120W power brick just to be safe.

:"When we place load on the AMD A6 3500 APU,
we see the power draw rise to 85 Watts:"

something important to know here,
during the test performed at guru3d.com,
the motherboard used was a --> ASRock A75 PRO4 FM1 ATX..

Yepp, the test wasn't conducted on a mini-ITX mainboard
but instead, it was done on a FULL ATX mainboard!!

proof --> http://www.guru3d.com/article/amd-a6-3500-apu-review/7

no wonder why they get ~85W under load...

Here's another interesting thread to read --> A6-3500 Power Consumption

Sweet dude! take a lot of pictures please.

Well as we know the a6-3500 with a itx mobo can spike to 70w.... so it must be that a 80w power supply can handle it. I am happy that I bought a 120W power brick because it's not to much and not to little. If anything I have a little more power in case it spikes higher or if I need it hommies.... Smile

i asked Waver to conduct Prim95 test and furmark.

we'll see how much Watts these will draw!

This looks like a great case, and a great build Beer. Just curious - will this support a Ceton InfiniTV PCIe card? It's a little hard to tell from the specs - they mention room for a video card, but not sure if this would also work for the Ceton.

Thanks!
