Intel i3 2100 (65 w max TDP)-but reviews on spcr show systems of the 2100 plus the intel board maxxing out at 50 watts total)

1 dvd writer and 1 hard drive (10w)

Radeon HD 4890 (~150 watts but i really dont know-some reviews say 250 watts)

Will the radeon blow the 250 w power supply?

OR is there a substitute ps or a different vid card for this setup-a movie/light gaming box(1280x720 p display? 1600 x 1050 p display?)

if by light gaming you mean casual games then the onboard gou is just fine. for more modern games the 6670 would be the very fastest gpu that your psu could probably handle long term.

does it need to be low profile to fit in that case?
