I have that heatsink and motherboard combo as well, although I dont have the gtx590 to go with it. good points: - quiet - the gap between the heatsink and motherboard is situated ideally so that air can go strait out the side vent, there is no obstruction. - cheap $AU45 bad points...

I see your point, but my sg07 wrapped in a towel + mouse + cables fits in my normal sized nike backpack. a smaller sg05 would mean I could fit more stuff in there, ie: wireless N nas?

if your talking about the 450w usb3 sg05 your crazy. u'll get a 2600k + gtx680 in that thing and is half the size of this mITX bohemoth its like the cubitek tank, its not mini at all, its a mATX case sized (silverstone tj08e) but only supports mITX boards

surely you can, you just wont be able to use the optical bays

sg07 + 590 http://forum.overclock3d.net/index.php?/topic/34976-mini-itx-rig/ pcq08 + sandy bridge + 590 http://forum.overclock3d.net/index.php?/topic/36221-big-things-do-come-in-small-packages/

nah thats not what I meant, its been done so pretty much validates ur build

probably cos its been done. check out the oc3d forums

just out of interest what temps are ppl getting with their cooling solutions?

gfx cards run hotter than cpus with big after market coolers

thats perfect dude cheers for that. looks to be enough room for a 5850 OC which is quite wide. its a toss up between this and the tj08e

really interested in getting this case, just wondering how much room in cm is there between the graphics card and the power supply?

hey how much room do you have in there between the 580s and the PSU? over 20mm?

id ask the dude what temps he's getting, just sounds like lot of effort there mounting fans, cutting holes etc, you might not need to, and if you dont have a benchmark you wont know if it was worth it

you did see my post right? theres a good side shot with the 590 in there, with and without the cover. looks to be over 10mm clearance, plus the end of the 590 is actually stops before the side vents end, so you could probably deflect the heat out the side with a barrier of some kind

this dude did a pretty good job considering the amount of stuff thats in there: http://forum.overclock3d.net/index.php?/topic/34976-mini-itx-rig/

cooler master elite 340 if you can find one approx $50AU

the define is nice looking, but to call it SFF is a stretch, its only a couple of cm smaller than the define r3 define r3 = 21cm x 44cm x 52cm define mini = 21cm x 40cm x 49cm tj08 = 20cm x 38cm x 38cm

true, however people are shoe-horning gtx570s + atx psu + h70 into an sg05, 580 is the same length so in theory the highest spec sg08 rig can be acheived in the sg05 http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?p=1037308677

the design no longer applies, the sg07 was only that long to accommodate the 5970 with the design philosophy of the smallest possible case with the largest possible vga card. scratch the 6990/590 off the list due to exhaust at both ends, which leaves the 6970/580 which is 20mm shorter. the...

apparently it can: http://forum.overclock3d.net/index.php?/topic/34976-mini-itx-rig/

nice. not much room left with the 6970. wonder if the 6990 would squeeze in there

I'll be getting a 590 for my sg07 build but I am also questioning the adequacy of the stock psu. these guys did a comprehensive review of the psu: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/SilverStone-Sugo-SG07-Review/1064/7 so the main points are: Input: 12VA 30A 360W 12VB 30A 360W So...

having had ati cards since the 4870x2, i am hugely disappointed at the 6990 offering. 1x active mini DP to DL DVI adapter and only one DL DVI port meaning eyefinity cannot be achieved without forking out another $100AUD for an adapter. If they are marketing eyefinity they should at least bundle...

My build is nearly finished, just waiting on the 6990 but would like to post pics for ppl who want to do a similar build. how come I cant add pics? Build so far: CASE: sg07 CPU: i7 870 RAM: 8gb XMS3 corsair MOBO: gigabyte h55n-usb3 COOLER: nt06 HDD: samsung 2tb f4 SSD: 120gb...
