After seeing the Prodigy from the news section, I just couldn't shake my mind off of it, so I decided to sell off my TJ07 build and start anew with my first m-itx build. I always wanted to do one, but never gave it enough consideration until the Prodigy came along. My thanks goes to everyone who bought my whole rig in a span of 5 days, it has helped me almost break even with the new build!

I will try to keep this updated unlike my TJ07 build! I never even posted my transition from AMD to Intel nor putting the 5870s in parallel for my loop for that build.

After I get the rotary tool, which will probably be the 
, I can work on cutting that 5.25" drive bay so I won't have issues with my RX240 push/pull configuration and also start working on a window mod.
