Ive put in the order now !!! I cant wait ! *Wiii :D
This is my second SFF system ive build, I dont no how many system fans are needed,
and if the mobo lives up to my expectations , but the way I see it, all above stock is good,
but I took a chance on P5B-MX/WIFI-AP with the 946GZ chipset, my hope is that it will o.c.
Only distrust I have is in how the mobo handles those memory sticks with stock volt.
On the other hand, if the mobo doesnt o.c I can run on stock 'til a o.c able board
will reach the markets.

I think he meant that Gainward stopped making cards in the US, they're only in Europe at the moment.

ok :eek: that's strange, Wonder what that is about from Gainwards end, hasnt the US an even bigger market than europe ?

Buh f***in' huh, im not going to get to build my rig until 1½ - 2 weeks from now, Im going away for school :mad: wicked sick!

EDIT; Some Rig changes 070115;
I thought Zalmans CNPS7700-CU wouldn't fit with almost 14cm in diameter so I went for Nexus PHT-7750 SkiveTek, I havent read any reviews on it, but it has one editors choice award
and I like to try it :D If someone have heard of it or tried it plz write your impressions.
The ST Sugo Silver was sold out so I got the black one, with a OEM IMON VFD and remote controller, im going for Kezmos mod on the usb/hp/mic tray. ;)


EDIT 2 ; Some Rig changes 070126;
From Nexus PHT-7750 to Aerocool X-Fire, I have seen 2 good reviews about it and the size seems perfect for small rigs. Thanx to kirbyrj I read some tests about the E4300 C2D and decided to order that one. With a lower default FSB @ 200, it seems it could be an ideal for small system builders for a final o/c result.



EDIT 3 ; Some Rig changes 070214; hahah 3rd rig change

I change my mind concerning mobo choice, from Asus P5B-MX/WIFI-AP to Asus P5LD2-VM DH/C couz' the damn P5B-MX wasnt in stock as they promised and I had heard many good things about P5LD2-VM so I didnt have the stones to take a chance on the other, and neither the patience to wait :D
After putting it together I realised a mailfunction on the motherboard and I returned it, a new one should arrive in some days :) The company confirmed the mailfunction aswell.
I have taken some images when building and I had a chance testing the mofo before the motherboard crashed. I've experienced the same as you guys, the damn E4300 wouldnt fsb clock. Anywho, I will post images etc in one or two weeks.
I hope a new bios version will come to this board for the E4300, 200FSB is to poor! :(
