Looking to try out SFF for a change, but wanted to run this by you all first. BTW, I picked the Lanbox Lite only because I can't find the Lanbox HT anywhere (Texas), and Thermaltake won't respond to any of my emails. Ugh. Anyone have any idea when we might get one? \

Running Vista 64 bit in order to use all 4GB of RAM. I'm worried about putting a GTX and quad-core into such a small case though. Is this simply too much heat? Is there a better SFF case for those components, or should I be swapping in a e6850 and GTS instead to lower the thermal load?
Appreciate any/all advice!!!
