Well here goes nothing. I have been building my own computers for about 10 years. In fact I have probably built like 10 computers (a computer a year, man the wife gets mad at me). However I have never tried to mod a box.
Enter the Rogue from NZXT. small but not too much so, with good air flow.
Goal: build an air cooled HTPC with good gaming capabilites that will serve as a good back up computer for when I take my main computer down to mod it. Also must be light enough to move ( "light" I realize its not going to be laptop light but lighter and easier than my Lian Li V2000)
Blu-ray/HD a must. 7" lcd touch screen, just something to mess with more than anything.
Full size ATX board a must. I don't want on board graphic card plus I want to be able to add several pci cards if I want.

Meet the organ donors
Just the side off of this one I replace the solid aluminum side with a window side. Glad I'm such a pack rat
The Challenge getting this m/b to fit
Got the bright Idea to use the Plasma cutter at work to cut out a m/b remind me next time just to use a jigsaw.
