Got a few guestions need some answers

[marley1]

Hey guys, well me too is goin to dive into the SFF world.

Im sellin my 2.4 p4 desktop and thinking of upgrading to a shuttle 64bit.

Now a few guestions -

Is their goin to be a socket939 SFF released b4 the end of summer, say b4 mid August. If not is my best bet the Shuttle Nforce3?

Also i have 2 160gig Maxtor drives(i believe its maxtor got em a while ago, dont even remember). Would their be any chance in fitting them both in their and having enough power? If not ill sell one and keep the other.

And power. Whats the story with this. Most come with like 200-250 watts. Is that goin to be enough for a 64bit, good video card(say radeon or gforce something new), with 1gig of ram, a dvd burner, and 1 or 2 harddrives.

Thanks,
Dan

The power will be sufficient for everything you'll have in there.

I know people who have had 2x 250GB HDDs, and a 9800XT with 1GB of RAM and have had no problem.

You'll also be able to fit both your HDDs in there. I took my 2nd 120GB HDD and stuck it in an external casing, because it did get hot in there (~45). Now, I'm running ~40.
