First off.... Crashman, I know you don't like SFF
Ok... here is the deal, I want to put together a small cube (with handle) system. I plan on putting in an after market 300w quiet psu. (lost the stinking link to it, will have to try and find that psu again)
I want to have an AMD 64 3000 or so in it..The only card I am going to put in it is an nVidia 5600 ultra [agp]. Nothing in any pci slots. 1Gb DDR400 ram.
It will have a DVD+R and one HDD (might buy a quiet SATA drive or use existing ATA133 160gb drive)
that's it.. no floppy, nothing else..
I looked at the falcon <A HREF="http://www.falcon-nw.com/fragbox.asp" target="_new">Fragbox2</A> but they made it 2" wider to accomidate the standard PSU and such. Portability is what I am looking for. The look of the cubes is something I like as well.
The <A HREF="http://www.chyangfun.com/pt_barebone_d.asp?MID=1&SID=e-cube series&PNo=CF-ENK8" target="_new">CF-ENK8</A> and the <A HREF="http://www.chyangfun.com/pt_barebone_d.asp?MID=1&SID=e-cube series&PNo=CF-ENK8A" target="_new">CF-ENK8A</A> both look like they would do what I need.. but I am not finding many cases out there that have a mobo that will handle the AMD 64 proccessors.
Anyone know of a good one out there?
And I am not having much luck finding that stinking quiet PSU.. any good links for one of these?
Thanks for your time and thoughts.
