Antec Fusion Media Centre PC Build

My Antec Fusion media pc custom build, most parts pulled from a gamming rig so alittle overkill for a media pc.
INTEL QUAD CORE Q6700 4 X 2.66M
8gb ram (OCZ)

Just asking a Noob question... can you turn on the PC with a remote controller with this case? That's really all I'm asking for from this case...

@LeoDarthvinci Hey, yeah there are 2 control leads from the LCD front panal, one is used to turn the unit on via the case on/off button and the other lead connect tp the IR LCD front panel enabling you to turn the unit off and on using the remore that come with the unit. Unfortunately you can not have both.

I have a very similar build, I used the Zalman cooler initially too, but I found it too noisy and installed an Scythe Mini Ninja instead. Doesnt the hum from that fan annoy you when watching films?

I have a fan controller and set it to minimum so tbh i don't evan notice it. I have since taken out the graphics card also which makes it much quieter, so i will be installing a fanless graphics card soon.

Thinking of getting this case myself a quick question though..

The ram your motherboard can take says 16gb but is the fastest it goes only 800mhz? Ive got 8gb of 1066 and want a uATX board that can take it.. also how big is the card you have in? Ive a ATI 5770 and would like that to fit in :-o

Cheers!

@mrdrgonzo my ram is max 600 but motherboard will take more

@LeoDarthvinci

nice,

I got the same case but a totally different setup: Zotac Geforce 9300 ITX WiFi Board, Core 2 Duo E7400 w/Scythe Big Shuriken, Sapphire 5450 VGA card (for 7.1 True HD sound over HDMI, ya know ;-), 2X 2GB Kingston HyperX DDR2 1066 RAM, Antec Earth Watts Green 430W power supply, Seagate Momentus 5400.6 250GB HDD, LG Bluray Combo Drive, Enermax Aurora Micro Wireless HTPC Keyboard

I removed the trashy Antec fans and have an almost inaudible HTPC now ! :-)
