Building a system mainly for watching streaming video and basic office functions.

Look around the forum will likely got with.

CPU+MB: Intel Pentium G2120 + MSI B75IA-E33 @ $197
RAM: G.Skill NT DDR3-1333 CL9 4GB [Black PCB] @ $28

Will be using some old parts:
SSD, Hard disk, Optical drive and Power supply(400w).

Can recommend mini itx casing for less than $100 which will fit everything in?

Thanks

Power supply of Matx is it sff? How to differentiate. Notice the cd room used is 2.5 inch in review, can't use 3.5? Another way is install using cd room first and remove from system later.

In general most matx board users use ATX psu, so in your case i don't think you can use the sg05.

That means I'll need to get a seperate psu for itx right? I notice some casing comes psu while others don't. Guess I'll need to shop for a psu too.

CM120. Can fit everything. Standard PSU, Standard GPU, 2 120mm Fan. And a 80mm fan at the side. Can fit a standard DVD drive. And if you know how to DIY the case you can fit a water cooling.
