    The Gruntville boys busy themselves with probulating Antec's 'Overture' HTPC / HEPC case:

    "One nice feature of this case is that it will accept a standard ATX MB. Once the MB and risers were installed, it is necessary to make sure the PSU power lead would reach the ATX power header due to its non-standard location. All turned out decent in that respect, but it is tight and might interfere with a large HSF if you have a similar MB layout. Although with this being touted for quiet computing, large HSFs shouldn't be an issue. Next, I laid out the front panel connectors and made sure they were long enough to reach around the PSU to the bottom of the MB. Again everything reached, but in some situations the cables will have to cross the MB which might not be ideal for a killer cable management scheme."
