I have one i use at the office as a backup server rig. I like the case alot. But i would not call it a small form factor case at all. Its a Mid Tower for sure.
I purchased the OCZ 120 GB Drive. Is this thing going ot be good for gaming? Im downsizing my setup into a Shuttle and want quiet and the box will only play games as i use ubuntu on another box for everthing else. Thoughts?
Im still using my 8800gt and i play tf2 and cod 4 and 5 with no problems at all. Only time will tell how bad it gets but i play at 1600 x 1050. Depends on what res you play at. I wouldnt pay mroe then a 100 bucks for one now though. Anymore and get something else.

i had a 680 board that still to this day haunts me in my sleep when i was finally ready to lsoe the fight i came here and cried really hard. Everyone said abit p35 pro is where you need to go. Now abit is gone. My board is rock stable with my overclock and 8800gt running strong. I was...
i have to agree with my friend above. I use the OS that pays my bills. I make my money on windows so thats where i stay. I have some experiance with linux servers but other thent hat no. i have to say Nux is alot of funt hought to play with sometimes. I try to run the nux on my lappy as duel...
yeah i see what your saying i think ill stick with my 8800gt for a while anyway, All i play is tf2 and it runs that game like a champ. Maybe ill wait for star craft 2 or somehting like that.
well to be honest the only water block for a gpuy i ever did was my 8800gt. I see now it was a waste of money. allthough i got great performance out of it now i find myslef ready to upgrade with 250 in the card and 100 for the water block. I want to movie into one of the new ati cards and do...

Poor stock cooling for Nb and Sb (watercooled)
Early MEM Problems (took a few sticks to get it right)

I ve been doing some reading and alot of people say put artic silver on your cpu but use ceramic on your nb and sb watercooling because if you bridge artic silver its bad. Is this trus should i use ceramic on the chipset and artic silver onthe cpu?
