Shuttle SP35P2V2
 

So I have had this little thing for about a month now, and I will not lie, I will not go back to a full tower unless I am dragged kicking or screaming.

I know this little box is a little out of date as far as chipset goes, but that works for me, and it overclocks like a champ. My only complaint so far would be the noise, but I am working on Watercooling the puppy, so hopefully I wont have to deal with that too much longer.

Really the only issue I ran into, while building this machine was finding a good graphics card in a single slot profile (which is actually really hard to do). I eventually settled on the evga 9800gt, which, while not the newest card, is no slouch. I had to do this because I currently use a wireless card (I know /cry) and I needed it to fit internally (I don't trust usb wireless uptime).

Currently the specs on the machine are:
q8200 @2.8
8 gigs corsais xms
evga 9800gt (still stock, win 7 drivers don't like rivatuner yet, or vice versa)
2x seagate 1tb hdd's
1 250gb hdd
win7 x64
2 samsung 24" ToC monitors

As far as my accessories go, I have the sidewinder x6 keyboard, x8 mouse, wacom tablet and the lifechat lx3000 (Yeah yeah yeah, I like the way the MS stuff feels)

Sweet, I've still not had anything to do with a mini system like that, and I keep thinking about it. I want to build a machine for the kitchen, play music, display recipes etc so maybe soon I will. That's a nice little rig you get the Goldaar.

But seriously, wtf is with my post count?!?!

I would def try one of the driveless ones they have now (no cd drive, etc) they have interchangable faceplates, and could probably be made to fit quite well in a kitchen. I will get some pics up later this week with everything crammed in there (it definitely is crampt!)

Cheers Goldaar, look forward to the pics.

As for post count ... nfi :( We've had a few issues here lately, so perhaps something happened then.
