So I spent most of today moving my computer innards from an Antec 1200 into a Silverstone Sugo SG02B-F case.
Antec 1200:
Silverstone Sugo SG02B-F:
Note: those are not my parts in the case.
Primarily I did this so I didn't have to haul an Antec 1200 case to the LAN, it's really heavy!
Due to complicated space limitations I had to give up my optical drive. But instead I installed a 4x2.5" HDD removable rack: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.as ... 7998037CVF
Now, it may say it's SAS, and the rear pictures show it has two channels per drive, but the one I got only had one per drive. So we will see how that pans out. However I still installed it anyways.
Just to clarify, the parts that are now in the system are as follows:
-Intel i7 980x
-Corsair HX 850watt PSU
-Asus Rampage II Gene microATX mobo
-6gigs of RAM (Mushkin I think)
-1x 1TB HDD, 1x 500G HDD
-1x nVidia 260 GTX
Totally worth it so far
