Follow up post, went ahead and got a 560ti and a 400W PSU. Works like a charm. Still need to construct the enclosure however.

Hi guys, been reading through this thread and the previous one to decide on my setup and share the experience. First off, a huge thanks to Nando4 for putting together all the information it has been a massive help in understanding what I need to do. I've purchased a PE4L v2.1b EC2C off redtrontech, minus the SWEX add-on, thought I'd bought the full kit and panicked for a moment before realizing I could just either do the paper clip trick or solder a switch, shaved $10 or so off the price so no real loss. I've yet to purchase a GPU however, I've noticed that a 560 Ti seems to be the most popular one and have been scouring eBay for some deals but would like to know any recommendations for the following spec: Lenovo X220 i7-2640m 8GB RAM Win 7 x64 I've also found an old ammo box similar to this: that I thought would make for an excellent enclosure assuming that I can get a PSU small enough.
