You will note in my specs that my rig is a Shuttle, even smaller than yours. I know what you mean about "room". `Seems like if you want to do anything at all to upgrade, you practically need a big shoehorn to get the job done. Unfortunately, mine is also noisy due to the loud Delta fan needed to cool my "pressy" chip.

Nice pics, thanks for this thread...I've been wanting to put together a SFF build pretty much since the day I got my P180 and realized that unless you have like 10 HDD's that big a case is useless haha.

Thanks for the support. REP+.

Ah yes, the joys of the Prescott core. I almost went with a Shuttle but I didn't like the idea of having to scrap my nice Corsair PSU. Tragic, eh?

Yeah, for me, the main consideration was whether it would fit in my carry-on bag to take home for breaks and such. Lucky me, it does.

The 300 watt PSU in my rig left barely enough room for its cables to route around the end of it (very long PSU) to plug into the MOBO.

Here are a few SFF comps I built

Not true, However...

My CrossFlow design has no equal. You can run ANY GPUs (2,3 or 4 of them) in a case that fits inside the Qpack.
The PS,Hdds,Optical and wiring is below so there is excellent cooling above.
