Thanks guys.
Sounds like the i5 3570k is the preferred choice for wii. Think i'll see what I can get this for. My only worry is the height of the cooler. I will need to factor the height into my bartop. I'm still in the design stage so it's good that I get all the space required inside sorted early on.
For ram, should I get 4gb or will I need 8gb?
I'm from the England so have been looking at UK sites.
What do you guys think of this? It's pre assembled and configured in the bios and I could mount the cooler fan on the back of the bartop straight out the back so it won't stand too tall. It's also mitx which is small enough for my bartop. Is 4.2ghz enough for smg and smg2?

Unless you guys can point me to a better bundle. I've never fitted my own cpu and cooler but i'm sure it shouldn't be too hard. The smallest mobile I can go go is matx, a full size won't fit in the bartop.
