Any mini-ITX motherboard will be that size; for PSU a pico-PSU or similar is good. Biggest advantage over a mac mini is not price, but options; you can get dual ethernet; you can add a ePCI or PCI card, etc.

Strangely enough I find the case to be the only part that is pricy. Finding an inexpensive ITX case can be hard.

I optimized for power consumption a bit more than performance, so I went with a Via SoC based board (18W at the wall). They have atom and Core based ones as well though.
