Hi

The more I look at these barbones inhere, the more i'm getting tempted for buying one. But a have some general questions.
You see, I have one of the biggest cases on the desktop market right now and i'm realy like lots of space...

my case

So I would like some info about those little pc cases

How many HD's can you put in it?
Will my FX5900XT fit in it.
Is their a possibility to have a WC setup for the GPU and CPU...

I really love good power, so is a barbonemobo the same as regular mobo's?
If possible, could you post some links with WC kooled barbones

Thx

You can put two hard drives and one Optical drive, visit the shuttle website for more info. Water cooling might be a bit of a tight fit tho.

If your FX5900XT only takes up one slot, then yeah, it'll fit.
most shuttles (iirc) have the AGP slot nearest the side of the case, and the PCI slot before it. so if your G-card takes up to expansion slots, it wont fit in a shuttle.

watercooled shuttles:

Numero 1

Numero 2

there are a few more on the sudhian forums, so just do a search. i picked out a couple of particularly nice ones.
