Hi I was wondering if my next build ought to be a dx10 sff is it possible to build a Oc'ing dx10 gamming monster?

I know is probably expensive but would look the dogs danglies :)
 
Well its theoretically possible to get 8800's in a Shuttle 37P2 - ie people on here have done it but I havent seen it in the flesh -(therefore Conroe based) and I have Vista 32-bit working well in my 37P2 -but only a X1950 so I can also fit in my dual tuner PCIE card

£300 for the shuttle
£280 8800
£100 Conroe E4300
£160 2GB Ram
£60 Single hdd
£20 DVD-RW
£70+ Vista

approx £1000 - admittedly you could do it for a little less, ie 1GB ram but I dont see the point, not only would Vista be horrendous but spending that amount and skimping on the RAM is just silly imo

Obviously you can spend a lot more also (4GB Ram, higher C2D, more hdd's)
 
As Frank says everything fits, the only thing you haven't room for in the SD37P2 is a sound card, I don't know what the situation is with other Shuttles.

I'm hoping to shove a DX10 card in mine at some point this year probably a ATI 600 if they are any good when they come out, but the rest of your stuff like Raided Raptors is not only possible but a lot of folks here have done it
