Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Good looking SFF cases?

Nothing can saturate the the 8x bus as it is... so 16x is still overkill.
is there another matx/sff system or barebones system you could suggest. i just want a fairly good overclock and single pcie. i noticed that you are using a SD32G2 dworley. how's that one?
from your point of view of the SD32G2, fragbox setup, and SD39P2. which one would you choose? also, does the 3 different black materials used for the exterior draw any unwanted attention? i hear it's aluminum brushed front, with glossy plastic trim, and then a matte black for the rest of the body. your pics look very nice, but on just aesthetics alone would you recommend the shuttle, an sg01, or something along the lines of and xgene mini htpc case?
hehe sorry about all the questions. i'm just really picky sometimes, and every once in a while i just need someone with more insight to give a little advice. hope it's not too much trouble.

It's personal preference really and component choice. (I prefer all brushed aluminum finish, excellent cooling performance and silence and require a dual slot video card with a PCI sound card in my systems for positional audio in BF2142.
I do not own an SD37P2 / SD39P2 simply because I can not run a dual slot video card with an X-Fi in it.
The Shuttle SD32 is perfect for me and is my primary system with a GTX or GTS, as it runs so much cooler than the Fragbox / SG01 since the video card is esentialy outside of the case.
I also have a Lian-Li V1000W SLI tower system with (2 8800GTS 640's) that I use occasionally as a Vista test mule and room heater.
I still have the Fragbox 2 and prefer it over an SG01 or Micro Fly but I parted it out for now. The X-Gene was too large for my taste and I did not care for the gloss black finish.
