I loved the way this case looked for integration into my living room...but the review is spot-on for the stock case. I've been using it since January with some simple "mods/arranging" and the case is great. The Specs: Asus P5W-DH, Intel C2D E6600, Sythe Ninja Mini, 2x1024 Corsair DDR2 PC6400C4D, 2x...

Hiper makes these small cases: http://www.hipergroup.com/English/products/hmc-1x53x.html In Sweden they cost just above 100USD. Thanks - they look nice! Do you know if this comes with a custom heatsink? By the looks of the specs, it is not included, but with a chassis that's only 53mm high it would...

Thanks, that one looks really slick. Only 120w PS though (is that even enough?) and the $250 pricetag scare me away a bit. It's on my shortlist now, still looking for more opinions as well though. yes 120w is to low for a PSU, but i think this case is design to accomodate mobile componets. Mobile C...

Maybe this one? It's quite small. I don't belive that it will have good airflow but at least its small. Maybe try and put a Mobile CPU in there. A dual core Intel will have absolutley no problem to playback 720p with intergrated graphics. http://www.silverstonetek.com/products/p_spec.php?pno=ml02&ar...

Don’t really know which fan is noisy, but I have heard a 490 before and I can confirm that indeed that thing is very noisy especially under load. FBDIMM memory does need some active cooling from my experience. FBDIMM used in Xeon Woodcrest Processors use 11w of power each DIMM so u can imaging how...

Very nice review. Thank you Fander was created mainly by me as I thought that there in 2003 was no good quiet fan in Poland. Good work! :wink: We're working on making Fander available across EU Would it be possible to sell them on Ebay? I've bought DVDs and stuff from Poland and the postage wasn't t...

I own this case and other than the very bad choice of cooling fans placement/noise/airflow I love it. After reading this great review I will try to mount a nexus 120mm fan as shown on the review. It’s unclear to me though if the top panel 80mm fan is replaced with a 120mm fan will help in any way.
