I'm about to get one of those cute and sexy little things, but, as we all know they might get a little hot compared to normal ones? And overclockability (not that I overclock much, but what the heck)
I was wondering, what one might I get then? I don't think I'll OC at all, and I was wondering would an XP-120 CPU-cooler fit? Would it even be any good if it fits? If not, which CPU cooler can I get?
Price range: Let's say, 500, only need mobo + barebonechassis thing + PSU, don't need SLI, I just sold my GTX and downgraded myself since I don't game enough to use it
My rig is currently:
AMD 64 3500+ (2250 mhz! That's a 50mhz overclock, aren't you all jealous?)
ASUS A8N-E (I hate it, really, I do. )
Corsair TwinX PC4000 @ 250.9 mhz 2x1024 (3-4-4-8 timings)
Gainward 6800GT (I use it at over-ultra speeds, can't do that in barebones I guess? Or can I?)
Would I be dumb changing to barebone? I love them. My friend has one, Shuttle SN85G5V2, it's absoluteley teh sexiest thing on earth! Also, I go to alot of LAN-parties, so I guess it would be smooth too. How many HDD's do they fit btw? I've currently got 2x250gig's, but can move one to servermachine if necessary.
So, uhm, yeah, what one should I get, if you think I should get one that is?
I'd like a quiet one, so cooling ideas and stuff I can put into them would also be very nice! 1.4V mobo is a must, or else I'll cry myself to sleep.
Plexiglass thing on the side isn't too important if it's there or not, also, would a PSU of that size be able to power my stuffs? I got one optical drive and a floppydisk-drive.
Thanks!
