diablotek psu's are very poor quality. they could damage your hardware...

@TheSchnitzelkiller I absolutely agree with you Schnitzelkiller, unfortunately I was unable to find another one similar size to work with this build. I am happy to say though the unit has been running non stop for several weeks without fault, thanks for the comment.

How much did it cost

[consoleworksvids]

@Keanudabeast I'm honestly not sure how much it cost, I really wanted an awesome computer to do everything I needed, so the parts probably cost about $700, but all the mods I did are PRICELESS

@youth03 Hey the case is the same size long, but a little bit shorter and thinner.

y dun u get z68 mini itx? its an awesome MOBO! u cn OC it!

@youth03 Hey youth03, the reason i didn't go with a z68 board is because at the time I couldn't find any available. But as far as the overclocking I believe I can actually over clock using this board, gigabyte has a utility called Cloud Overclock. I'm also not really too worried about overclocking right now because of how small the case is, I don't have that much clearance for the CPU cooler. I plan on modding the case for better cooling though, then ill overclock. SUBSCRIBE to see cooling modz

@consoleworksvids is this case much smaller than silverstone sg07?
