i have a DELL optiplex gx520 full tower, and more than 70 users, 3Gb of RAM,
a 3.5 hdd and 2 gigabit network card, like Dreazen says:

 

" Take out any unecesseary component like CD, multicard readers... which is
usuall equipment of ITX cases.
Beside case, you will need appropriate box and power suply (adapter  

notebook brick type), RAM"  

 

no problem so far and more than one year with it...
