Nikko's M1N10N Rig Rebuld (UPDATED OC!!!) Friday, February 03, 2012 7:03 PM (permalink)
 I made a post about six months ago if not longer showing my two newly built M1N10N Folders.  Sadly like a lot of people the year was a bit hard financially and I have to part them out.   But now since the wife has found herself a job and we are back with two incomes I am now starting to be able to rebuild my former computers.  I would say %90 of this rig was bought off of the forums here so big thanks to every one for the deals!!!
 
So lets get into one of the reasons behind this rig.  The biggest reason I chose a small form factor for this was for LANs.  Its almost a done deal for me and my buddies to have a LAN party and frag it up on some Tribes Vengeance, Halo CE and F.E.A.R. Perseus Mandate (old but fun!).
 
Hard Parts:
CPU:   Intel Xeon W3520 (4.189mhz [20X210] @ 1.25V Vcore) Big thanks to liquidfluidity for the chip and the voltage tips!
RAM:   6gb Corsair Dominator GT 2000mhz
Mobo: EVGA X58 Micro
GPU:   EVGA GTX480 (will probably replace with a GTX480 SC)
 
The cooling is a compact version of what I had in my ARSENAL 4-Way system but configured for the smaller case.  This is my second time building, or technically rebuilding, a waterloop... Its a real PITA and water was everywhere   But I got it primed and running!
 
Loop Parts:
CPU Block:  Swiftech GTZ SE
Reservoir:   Swiftech Micro Rez
Pump:         Laing DDC Style w/ Expansion Chamber (rebuilt Mac Pro pull)
Fittings:      An assortment of Bitspower silver compressions
Radiator:    Single 120mm EK
Tubing:       Noprene w/ Red Anti-Kink coils
 
And now for the Case.  This case was designed and built by GoneCrusing (a local EVGAer) who has an outstanding build quality with his cases.  You can find the case on his site under the Micro Air Tower I believe but I think its technical name was the SSF Micro Tower.  I also had him do a custom laser etching on the case window of an image I illustrated.  The best thing for me about this case is that its literally a quarter the size of my DD Tower 29 (also a nice case) so its a lot easier to transport to my LANs.
 
So now more talking here are the pics so you know it happened. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Thanks for looking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

          Thanks every one!  Yeah the case is great.  Still need to get one of GC's dual fan grills for the side of it but other than that its a fairly complete case.

              Updated the OP with my OC.  4.189 @ 1.25V !   Will be tweaking to see if I can go lower.
