so this is my shopping cart;

mobo GA-Z87N-WIFI
ram 16GB (32GB if i can)
intel i5 (looking at 1GB intel hd)

will be using old sata 2.5" hdd (320GB)

wont be using disc drive
wont be having multi hdd/ssd - one is enough

the newer antec mini itx case got 150w psu. it even looks bigger with rooms i dont need. i really likes the older antec isk 110 90w for it's super small case but is this enough power?

The Z87N is limited to 16 GB of ram. Get two 8GB sticks to max it out. If you're going for an
I5 build the 150 W PSU is cutting it pretty close. You could use the lower TDP I3-4340 cpu.
The TDP is only 54 W. Then use an SSD for your boot drive. Will be very fast.
