You have forced my hand, I will now post an out of focus, low-res pic of my rig!

Also, those white thingies on my graphic card apparently attached the fan housing to my card, and now the fan likes making noise due to the vibrations caused by a lack of them. They seem thick, so I wonder if glue will fix it - what does you thinks?

I am not in the mood to take it apart (also since it's so small I would be taking a lot of stuff apart simply so you could actually see things) so here is one angle of how it looks.

121163-albums6287-picture68066.png


CPU: i7 3770k OCed: 4.2GHz 1.05v (that is stock voltage btw)
Motherboard: ASRock Z77E-ITX
RAM: G.Skill Ares 8GB, 2133 MHz, Cas Latency: 11
GPU: MSI Radeon HD 7950
SSD 1: 128GB OCZ Vertex 4
SSD 2: 128GB OCZ Vector
HDD: 1TB WD Black
Case and PSU:Silverstone SG08
CPU Heatsink: Cooler Master Gemini II S524

Anyway, I built it for video editing and to be a mobile computer (weighs 20lbs). I went rather conservative with the OC, but I prefer stability over the extra speed honestly. As for why I have 2 SSDs? The Vertex 4 has Windows/WoW and is more for personal use. The Vector has a partition with Arch Linux on it, and is mostly used for work oriented stuff. Other than that ya your standard high end Mini-ITX rig.

Looks to me like those white thingies are some components with thermal double sided tape on them. Maybe try removing it carefully and attaching them again with thermal tape.

Nice.. I've always been a fan of Silverstone cases, especially the ones with rotated motherboard.

I'll get some pics of mine soon.

Ok here are some pics:

Silverstone FT03 (mATX, rotated motherboard).

Inside with GPU removed:

The GPU barely fits in there and I had to be really brutal in order to get all the extra cables to fit in the back. But temperatures are surprisingly good.

Radeon HD 7970 @ 1100 MHz
3570K @ 4.5 GHz
