Hey all,

I just upgraded my main PC to a full size ATX mobo which up until yesterday used a Tforce 6100-939, so I decided to build a SFF. I went with the following:

Black Lian-Li PC-V300
Biostar Tforce 6100-939
Opteron 165
Stock AMD Heatpipe cooler (for now)
2GB G.Skill DDR400
500GB Seagate SATA HD
EVGA 7600GS (don't really game at all anymore)
LiteOn DVD/CD-R combo
Silverstone ST50EF-Plus Short Cable PSU

Assembly was fairly simple. The V300 does require a bit of forethought to get the components installed in the right order, but overall I was fairly pleased with it. I really like the Silverstone PSU. The short cables are great to work with.

I'll be trying Vista Ultimate on this build for the first time to see how it goes. I will also be trying to see what I can OC the 165 to on stock cooling for grins( removed thermal pad and used AS Ceramique). I'll toss a few pics up later if anyone wants to see em.
 
I'd be interested in the pics, as well as any temps you can pull from your HD (if you plan on mounting it in the cage).

I was interested in the case, but was scared off by the sheer amount of mods people were doing to the case to cool off the components.

I'm not planning on doing much if any overclocking, so I'd like to see what temps your system generates.
