That's a nice case. What are the two red things at the back? :confused:

LEDs?

cadaveca · Aug 28, 2011

Wireless antennae w/ red plastic covers.

Looks like the board I reviewed here:

What PSU did you use, KieX? I see no cables!!

Yup it's the same board. The PSU is the bog standard one that comes with the SG07. I just bunched up the cables with cable ties and hid them in a small gap behind the graphics card, below the optical. Little brute force was needed, but everything seems to be getting power properly.

Options for overclocking are very limited, but think i'll aim for a 4GHz with powersave features on.

cadaveca · Aug 28, 2011

Seems more than realistic.

SB doesn't need alot to clock up the CPU speed.

Nice build, for sure.

That would be awesome for LAN parties.

xBruce88x · Aug 28, 2011

Looks soooo cool with the darkness all around :cool:

The 650D is such a nice case although I prefer cases with doors.

Some toys I got for my old Pentium E5800 LGA775 build to recycle it into an HTPC:

You might wonder why did I get a TV Wonder Elite after buying two TV Wonder 650s; I looked at ebay and saw that the Remote Wonder Plus goes for about $15+shipping so we're looking at ~$30 shipped to me. Thankfully I got the TV Elite for about the same so I basically got the remote plus a free analog tuner card. Analog TV is still big down here so I can sell it or use it in my desktop or trade, whatever.

The cooler is a very basic one (CM DI5-9HDSC-A1-GP) but it's rated for 95w processors so it should cope with my moderately overclocked E5800.

I already had an HD4650 AGP *BUT* I couldn't leave the HD4670 behind. It was on clearance plus the blower style cooler will help to move air out of the case.

And speaking of the case:

It isn't the most glamorous case but it had two qualities that I wanted:
- cheap
- hidden 5.25" bay

The case was a display unit and also the last one. Apparently it was a prebuilt at some point going by the stickers.

It's missing 3 covers (I don't mind as I won't be needing any) and the guys didn't find the box but has a really nice 350w PSU:

nice score on the HTPC case
