    New SFF gamers case: presentation and advices

    mattinv - August may be too late/tight for me due to travels and moving. Would there be the possibility of preordering and getting it early? I guess I'll touch base early July and see what the status is.. Just didn't want to miss the boat...

(besides, I was confused as to whether shipment would come from Oregon or Michigan...) I am guessing that the case comes with all the necessary screws or will I need to...

    I was just thinking... if installling such large and powerful coolers in DA BOX is such a pain.... How come everyone doesn't use the Corsair H50 or CooliT ECO? Is it just a question of price where most people think it's unnecessary to spend more than for a HSF that works? My thinking of going...

    I take it running 1.6v mem (the ripjaws that I'm looking at) on the MSI 890GXM-G65 shouldn't be a problem, right?

    I see that someone else brought up the MSI 890GXM-G65. I am now thinking of building a system using that board in DA BOX (considering that there are no mATX 890FX boards!) Do you know if the Scythe SCMG-2100 cooler would fit along with the taller DIMMs like the G.SKILL Ripjaws?

    I don't plan to overclock but it seems that the stock cooler just doesn't cut it in an SFF. It's a good idea to have good (thermal) margin for extra stability on a hot day or for when you decide to overclock because you notice your system isn't keeping up. Moreover, I'm planning on getting a...

    New SFF gamers case: presentation and advices

    This looks real good. Yet, going mATX instead of a Shuttle means we all have to decide on a PSU and HSF to pick as well. Someone had mentioned the Silverstone Strider Plus being the best PSU for this case. That settles that but there seem to be a bunch of HSF as options and I have no idea...
