Re: Quiet SFF build

looks good, only suggestion would be to clean up the cables with some kind of ties and bundling them so that they don't run all over the place

well I used to have an Antec NSK1300, liked it except the clunky weird shaped power supply. ONce you remove the power supply and use a PicoPSU it is great. I sold it for an NSK2400.
I also like the Thermaltake lanbox lite, but it is longer than a regular cube

My 5v line at idle was down to 4.7V! So even though overall wattage consumption does not exce...
