Greetings Everyone!
I need help in completing my 3M (Micro Mini Monster). I've built my share of PCs over the years, but this time I'm afraid I've run into a virtual wall of issues and obstacles that I can't seem to find solutions to. I'm hoping some of you can help and have the answers I'm looking for.
So far, the components I already have are as follows:
Asus P8Z77-M Pro Micro ATX Motherboard
Intel I7-3770K Processor
Corsair H60 Liquid Cooler (2013 version)
32GB Ballistix Tactical DDR3 RAM (4 sticks of 8GB each)
Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD
Seagate 7200 RPM 2TB HD
Two (2) Gygabyte Geforce GTX-660Ti Video Cards (for SLI)
LG Slim Blu-Ray Combo Drive - SATA CT40N
Windows 7 Pro and Ubuntu 12.10 Linux
I bought an In Win BK623 case and have 10 more days to return it.
http://www.in-win.com.tw/products_pccase_series.php?cat_id=1&series_id=42
The only thing smaller is an SFF like the In Win BL140, but it's low profile PCI-E slots are too low.
The following are the problems I face:
Problem 1> I can't find a case similar to this that can take an 850w-1000w ATX Power Supply (PSU)
Problem 2> I can't find a modular 850w-1000w SFX PSU (The size this case actually takes)
Problem 3> I can't find an 850w-1000w ATX PSU that's 150mm deep or less (would solve problem1)
Problem 4> I can't find Right Angle PCI-E 6 Pin adapters (Normal ones won't fit in tight case space)
Problem 5> I can't find an Asus V7 case unless I buy the whole system from Asus (This case fits)
Any help with these problems would be extremely appreciated.
Cordially,
ScoutX
