    Aftermarket CPU Cooler Dilemma

    Check the height, but the Thermalright AXP 140 is another option for mini itx motherboards with the socket close to the pcie slot.

    mITX - Room for an additional card...

    I sincerely doubt it. I have not read any review, but if I were to shell that much money on a soundcard, I would not gat an Asus to begin with.

    mITX - Room for an additional card...

    Even with "pro" (or so) USB soundcards ? (200€ and higher for something decent—I'm thinking Roland, Native Instruments, etc.) But yeah, it would be less fun than achieving what you want with the mini PCIe.

    Abee Acubic T20R + Asus P8Z77I-D Mini-ITX Build

    This is still too big for me as a mini-ITX build, but the case is beautiful, and the Noctua with the two Thermalright fans looks amazing in it. Waiting to see what it looks like with a 680/670.

    Small, powerful gaming mini-ITX system, possible?

    Small, powerful gaming mini-ITX system, possible?

    If you read this review, you'll see that the very slight loss of performance compared to a full ATX P8Z88-V Deluxe is nothing to worry about. In any case it won't be debilitating. And you'll be able to overclock your CPU as well. Given that Thermalright and Noctua monsters fit on this board...

    I got my LianLi PC-A05B ! it's Small!

    A few more shots: Now, here, maybe I should reverse the PSU so that the fan faces the top, as to avoid a hot air pocket on the top front of the case? The fan bracket will be painted as well, obviously. More details of the HDD: There should be some tweaking...

    I got my LianLi PC-A05B ! it's Small!

    Well, the case in finally painted. Black, of course. Top and side panels cut. There are some scratches on them, especially on the top panel, and overall the case is not as much aesthetically perfect as I wanted it to be. I knew it would be the case though, because I did it with basic tools, on...

    Who makes a really nice computer desk?

    With this in mind, I would have advised you to consider a Max, by Ferruccio Laviani/Kartell. Two different colors, three sizes, it is not that cheap but believe me, it is worth the money -yes, I have one. However from what I also read, it may not be what you are searching for, so feel free to...

    I got my LianLi PC-A05B ! it's Small!

    I paid mine 52€, less than the average price of a True here in France. It is still expensive, but heh, it is currently one of the best solutions for aircooling. It performs slightly better than the True, but the difference is more significant when using low rps fans (I placed two Scythe...

    I got my LianLi PC-A05B ! it's Small!

    No skulltrail mobo in this tiny case, this is just an Asus P5Q-E with a Thermalright IFX-14 on it ;) Actually I tought once about doing what you just wrote, except that I would keep the reverse airflow for the CPU+HDDs, and totally separate the lower section of the case from the expansion...

    I got my LianLi PC-A05B ! it's Small!

    Well, it is still rough at the time, but here are some pictures to give you an idea. Forgive the shaky hand and average quality, I will take better pics when it is finished :) I am not sure yet whether to put the PSU on top or at the bottom. I think the airflow would be much better...
