Yes, I chose Dign3 case because it accepts standand ATX components and still
looks cool and small and fits my bookself. There was an ATX PSU review at 
Anand Tech recently:

First, is a 450W ATX PSU an overkill in a VDR box or should I look for
300W model instead?  

The test above is valid only for 450W PSUs and probably maker of a good 450W 
model also makes a good 300W model, right?

In the test for example Fortron 450W model seems a bit more quieter than 
Enermax.
