I have a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme in my Microfly...it's really not that big of a deal. What saves you the most space is actually moving the hard drive to the second optical bay. Also, modular PSU is key...
i would try wake by PCI devices...technically, the internal network card is a PCI device, even though it's built in.
also, under device manager in windows, go to the nic's properties...under advanced, turn on "wake from shutdown" and under power management, turn on "allow this device to wake...
Are these too high? (CoreTemp temps in parentheses)
T = Speedfan (CoreTemp)
Tload = 42 C (57 C)
Tidle = 27 C (42 C)
Tambient = 26 C
No OC, everything auto.
Setup: E4300, XP-120, Microfly with extra 120s (1 in, 1 out), HX520, P5K-VM, Ballistix, new bios (0601?). Thinking my XP-120...
Most peeps have had more OC success on this board using add-on vid cards.
The PCI lock is sort of a dumb question, which is why nobody really answered I'm guessing, but if you look at the 1st page of this thread, there're screenshots by PVHK that show all the settings and one of them is PCIE...
I think the assumption, that, this being an Intel brand board, it won't have any OC options. They usually disable the OC options on their board, as far as I've experienced anyway.
that thing's HUGE!!!!!!!!!
mini? It's what, maybe 2 inches shorter than a P180, and maybe 2 inches less deep, same width. that's no SFF...that's a mid-tower! lol
Here's a post on Ars that I found:

Now I'm getting full load temps of 62/58/60/63 @3.2Ghz, Tuniq Tower HS, .03v...
