Hi Guys

I am about to build my first SFF as my current mobo has given up the ghost and so I now have an opportunity for a new build. It does have a few caveats and these are :-

1. Needs to house a Sapphire Fury Tri-X (Current card)
2. Needs to house Full Size ATX power supply
3. I would like advice on an AIO watercooling solution for processor (Corsair Hydo or something like it)
4. Keeping my options open and would like it to be SLI/XFire compatible

I am probably looking at MATX rather than ITX due to SLI/XFire and I have been looking at the Corsair Carbide Air 240 to house it all in.

Any advice or recommendations would be greatfuly recieved.

cheers

The 240 is a case that will fill those requirements. It's a pretty decent option. Also the prodigy is popular in these parts, however it's too big for me. But don't compromise on space if you want really high end components.

One of the big issues I've had with my C130 is getting the heat out, so with a big hot card or two you'll really want to keep that in mind when choosing your case. Lots of ventilation is going to be key as is air flow (read fan mounts).
