I'm looking at getting a SFF for university in the fall to save some space and also upgrade from what I'm currently running. This is kinda what I'm looking at:

-Shuttle SB61G2
-P4 2.8c CPU
-Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB
-1 GB (2x512MB) Corsair Twinx PC3200

I'll just probably add a DVD Burner and a 120GB hard drive to that, nothing else major. I had two possible issues that I was thinking of. One was that would the 200W PSU be able to run that, or would I possibly have to upgrade to a 250W PSU (like the SilentX they sell on Newegg)? Secondly, with that much high end stuff, would heat be an issue? I've heard different things about these systems, people having great success and people blowing up their boxes (metaphorically speaking). Anyways what do you guys think? And guidance or info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
 
Alright, thanks. Yah I won't be overclocking it anyways, so I'll probably be ok.
