Hi lown and welcomem to the boards. I will now give you the best advice anyone in here ever could - Don't just take one opinion and run with it. Take a bunch into consideration and make your own. That said, I run a Mini ATX system with a Biostar M7NCG 400 and a Mobile Athlon 2400(35W). Seen below. I'll tell you, I haven't ever had problems with heat, vibration or anything. In fact, my PC boots so fast I don't even use hybernate. I love using the less expensive, more reliable full size products. I am not a big fan of the ITX and Nano stuff, as there are limitations like PCI slots, resolutions issues etc, everywhere on the forum. That said, I know there are many more than happy with their ITX setups as well. I also use a regular HDD and I power it all off an OPus 150. The Mobile XP CPU allowed me less power consumption - 35w but be CAREFUL not all boards accept it nicely. The Biostar does though. Good luck!
