Can you help?

[Zak33]

Needed: Advice on a SFF for a Core 2 Duo system. Will have a medium powered card in at first (X1600 standard) and then in about a year, a more powerful unit.
Likely CPU 6600
Needed: Ultra uber stability. I mean ..UBER!

Advice please

Thanks

Ignore anything which isn't an Intel chipset

[dave87]

Does it need to be SFF or could it be something in a mATX chassis?

[DR]

I'd be tempted to get a SUGO Chassis and a nice m-ATX

That way you can put Crossfire or SLI in it - and have upgradability.

Also - you can get a couple of HDDs, a decent PSU and a nice Optical - providing a nice PC all round

[dave87]

Indeed, my thoughts exactly (minus the SLi bit)

Also less likely to have temp problems, as you can use a decent hsf (or watercooling)

SUGO might be the way to go, the guys got an old 1.7ghx P4 SFF iirc but has said that if he has to go tower then thats ok, m-ATX would probably suit him more IMHO...
Any reviews/links?

[Zak33]

Trig is on the money there, as is David (as ever!)

[[GSV]Trig]

I'm only on the money cos I know exactly what its wanted for and know the old fart in question

Have googled that sugo tho and it does look nice, not perfect and not cheap but for what it's use will be and the fact its upgradable I tihnk it would fit the bill better than another SFF or a Tower system.
