    Steambox/Media center pc

    Cool I think I'm going to go with the SG08, mostly because the GD08 won't fit full sized video cards. Micro atx will be fine. Any advice on components? Can you replace the power supply that comes with the SG08? I assume a modular one would better serve the small space.

    New Build - CPU Cooler suggestions

    I will be overclocking. I do not know how high I'll go. I don't need something like the super expensive noctua or the COrsair air cooling h100. Just want something decent that will allow me to overclock a decent amount.

    $2000 AutoCAD/Solidworks Build

    The power supply is an 850w. And I've never even heard of mushkin... and that ram has 0 reviews. What is your reasoning to picking that over something much more known an reliable? Same with SSD.
