hi,
i am all set to build my new rig. looking at a core i7 750, h50 corsair cooler, 8gb ram 3 x 1tb hdd, gfx undetermined yet due to case choice. ide bluray rw.
my question is this.
i was all set to go with a tower case such as fortress or fractal design, but then i wondered if i could get away with a media style desktop case that could sit on a shelf under the tv instead of having a tower case on the floor.
what limitations apart from obvious lack of hdd bays will this have?
i dont game so don't need an uber gfx set up. do however need plenty grunt and run silent as possible.
advice appreciated, and suggestions too.
thanks
ally
