Looks good man! I haven't seen a build with a i7 3770S yet. Have you considered de-lidding the processor for even lower temps? Quite popular with the Ivy Bridge crowd these days.

No, I have no desire to risk my already limited funds (I'm a college student) for lowering my already stupid low temps. After lapping, undervolting, and liquid cooling the CPU, my temps at idle are the same as my room temps (22C) and load (Prime95) temps hit 35C after 24 hours.

I'm glad you like you. I wanted to challenge myself a bit more which is part of the reason I went with matx, the other part is I wanted a super tiny system to take up as little space as possible.
Note: If anyone has any questions feel free to ask, I'll be more than willing to tell you how I did something etc, I like helping others make their dream builds become a reality. Also, I plan to upload more pictures that were taken of me while I was working for anyone who cares to see me being silly/crazy as I solve the current problem I ran into (There were a lot)
