Just starting this off as its my first mITX build. Originally I built everything into a BitFenix Colossus however the amount of space it takes up its just ridiculous so I'm in the process of downsizing everything into something much smaller.
From a Colossus to this:
Yep, one of OCUK's very own custom painted Prodigys.
Spec:
I7 3770S
Gigabyte B75N mITX (currently M.I.A)
8GB Kingston Hyper X Genesis
Powercolor r9 280X
OCZ Vertex 60GB SSD
2x Seagate Barracuda 500GB HDDs
Superflower 550w 80+ Gold PSU
Corsair H100 cooling system
I've also nicked one of the big 230mm fans from my Colossus and put it in the front and added a blue Bitfenix Alchemy strip as well.
The spec isn't amazing I know but for the little bits of gaming I do it works just fine. I don't play any of the latest titles so don't need loads of power (I was almost debating a switch to one of the APU's and then color coordinating with red and black but decided to stay with Intel and blue)
Once the motherboard makes an appearance I'll be putting it together, probably will take longer than most builds as I'll have to really consider the build properly to keep the system cool.
