    Best full-tower case... air cooling.

    I'm going to vote for the Antec 1200, I love my 900; and this is pretty much the next gen version. I added a few more fans though :)

    no air flow bad?

    There has to be some way you could hook up a better air filter right to the intake of the computer. Other than that, I would probably tape off everything with masking tape that didn't need to move, so as it couldn't get in through the joints. Do you have the windows open in your computer room...

    Radeon 4850 in a Shuttle G-chassis?

    I'm not sure about running anything from Nvidia with 240W, especially something like a 8800GT I know you need at least a 400 W, that's what the system req's say. With what little I know about power supplies the graphics cards operate off different rails, and I could almost say with confidence...

    bit torrent box

    I was thinking of linux, just for stability reasons. I plan on checking the box like once every week or so. I do have access to use a server 2003 liscence, are there advantages of using server 2003 over just plain xp pro?

    bit torrent box

    I did consider the Drobo network share NAS that has a bittorrent client, however that is pretty limited right now that I couldn't do too much else on it.Even if I chose to go the PC route I am going to dial into it, so that I wouldn't have a m k or m attached. I was thinking small atom box...

    bit torrent box

    Any advice for a very small box I could put by the router just for torrents? I've seen the kit for the msi wind (desktop), any experience with these? Thanks in advance!

    Is this PSU good for 4870 & q6600?

    the 380 would be weak, you need at least 500 I'd say

    HX-1000W & TJ-09

    awesome setup man, that looks like it would tear up most games out there. I'm going to the gtx 200 series as soon as nehalem launches

    Power filtering

    Just wondering [H]'s thoughts as to whether or not you should put a power-filter between the wall and your battery back-up, the battery back-up and the computer, or even for go the power filter all together?

    antec earthwatts 650w power lead too short?

    I agree with Ocellaris, try and find a smarter way to route the cables closer to the motherboard. I've struggled with my Antec 200 as well with getting power chords to where they need to go, I have thought about drilling holes in the back of the case to route the cables behind the mobo tray, but...

    Issues with CUDA

    I don't think that right now it's major enough for ATI consumers worry about. The game support wasn't terrific, and it only made it into a couple really good games. With the Nvidia acquisition, I think that it will just enlarge the amount of things that we seriously consider for gaming in...
