I don't mean to troll... but whats the point in putting that kind of hardware in an HTPC? And on top of that, why would you bother water cooling it? Just seems like a total waste to me.

Don't forget you also get a way higher performance and for small lan party's it's quite good idea, hate to have in friends house somebody with a computer noisy as hell...

I really respect that build dude, to fit so much in so small space, got to try that someday myself :P (not the same way)

im just thinking, would you have more benefit from shorter video card cause gigabytes cards are quite long...

So besides the obvious of that lol, I just couldn't call an HTPC a lan machine. Maybe I'm just hung up on the verbage...

I do agree though, its quite impressive how compact the whole thing is
