I recently decided to build a new box that was SFF and gaming capable..
E8400 @ 3.8
8GB of Mushkin 1066
WD Raptor X 150GB x3 in RAID 0
DFI LanParty JR P45 T2RS
Visiontek 4870X2
HIS 4870 1GB
Silverstone 850W PS
OCZ Vendetta (Was a bitch to install)
Everything was installed into an Antec P180, specifically for the excellent air flow. I was a little disappointed with the overclock that I got out of the E8400, but it will have to do. The videocards are running like champs, but they run a little hot but that's what I expected with the intake on the cards partically obstructed. I have a front fan blowing fresh air in the direction which helped lower the temps a little. I did the best that I could with cable routing, but there was not much I could do with the PCIe connectors.
Overall, I'm happy with the results.
Anyways, here are the pics...
