good work

like the simple design you have gone for
would be interesting to see how the new coolers keep your hardware compared to the epic loops you had before!
 
It is quite a change from the Inverse rig you built, but hopefully this will be just as good! :)

I keep thinking of getting an MATX system, just a little quiet thing for using as a media PC or somthing... but looks like yours is gonna have a bit more power than that :p Good luck with it man!

Sorry, but that bit just made me laugh!! :p

Looks alright for just quickly putting it together! Guessing you already had the PSU braided and such?

yeah i had the psu braided from my previous build.

had to force the rear panel on as i still need to tidy the cables behind the mobo tray.

long story about the side panel. sent it to be modified and have a window installed and the courier delivered my panel to someone else and their parcel to the guy i was getting to do the work.

hopefully i'll get the panel to the guy and back asap.

what fans you planning on getting?
& whats your current cpu & gpu temps?

yate loon 2100rpm's as they go down to 1100 for silence and 2100 for performance and theyve always treated me well

35 idle on the gfx @ 27% fan
40-42 idle on the cpu with fan @ 1100rpm (3.6ghz @ 1.16v)

i'll get load temps when the build is finished.

Looks awesome so far but I think it would have looked better with white external and black internal. But will see how this turns out. ;)

Join the Mini P180 club. :p

Going to have to do a rebuild in mine one day as the tech is getting a little dated. :o

EDIT: I went for the Sharkoon Silent Eagles in my case. What are you going for StevenG? :)

It does take pwm fans though, but doesnt use that as the method to control their speed. I have 5 Enermax Clusters (which are pwm) plugged into mine fine :)
