Power Shuttle!

[Stringent]

Just done the last upgrade to my SB75G2. It now contains:

Intel Pentium 4 3.2GHz
1GB RAM
80GB SATA Hard Disk (OK this is upgradable if I run out of room!)
Plextor PX-708A (Might get Dual Layer Soon)
XFX 256MB Geforce 6800GT (Came this morning, it just about fits!)

Had a 9800 Pro in there previously. What can I say, any game all settings turned up, wow. I know the 7800s are out. I tend to now keep a generation behind in graphics, I mean its silly to keep splashing out £350 each time a new one comes out. Besides all games should play on this system for a while.

Next upgrade, next year - probably. To Dual Cores

Your X800 XT PE is faster than just about any PCI-e card with the possible exception of the 7800GTX and the X850 XT PE, but even then it's open for debate. Depends on what program you are running.

That SFF was made by me. It's a proto-type Storm PCs LAN Traveler. I'll be selling them soon in various configurations. It will be awhile before selling to the UK will be feasible however. I can barely keep up with orders in the US and I'm just getting it going.

Nice size box matey what mobo is that?

[StormPC]

Foxconn Winfast NForce4. I use a couple of different models.
This is the one in the box shown.

Found any good PCI-E mATX boards?

[Platinum]

Currently running a SN25, 3000+ (Upgrading to FX57 next month), 2GB Corsiar PC3200 (Really makes a difference in BF2), XFX 7800GTX, 250GB Hitachi SATA II HDD, NEC DL DVD Burner

There are some on the horizon but I have not been able to test one yet. The boards I use are good but they don't overclock that great. They do have some overclocking features though.

They need to make a NF4 Ultra based micro!

Unfortunately the Shuttle is the best bet so far, but if they are X2 compatible I don't see them overclocking well either. The X2 is a beast when overclocked.

Amen to that! Comon DFI, Abit and MSI hop to it!!!!!

[StormPC]

Really pissed at MSI right now. They won't even work on a decent version of the K8N Neo4 Platinum BIOS. The ones they have now are crap and they don't support the X2.
