| Only 2 things bothering me: 1) Prosavage graphics. Probably more then enough to display Word & Excel. But ... will onboard vga cripple the entire system ? (If so i can still add an agp-card ofcourse.) 2) Height mATX case = 135mm Height cooler = 90mm If you make a sum of "case-feet" - case thickness - top cover - spacer - mobo - slot A ... it will be a tight fit and not leaving much space.

| Re: New office machines Why not the ASrock K7T...? KT266A (a lot faster than KM266 chipset) and has lan and onboard sound. It doesn't have onboard VGA, but it's 12 eur cheaper, and you can get a basic agp card for 20 eur. Seagate Cuda V should a tiny bit more quiet, and the 60GB version costs only 10 eur more (but i doubt you'll need 60Gb for office...). Last thing... a 60mm casefan? :s

b) If i could buy a silent 7200 rpm fast disk of 5GB, 10 EUR cheaper then the 40GB i would still go for the 5GB. Smaller disk = faster format, no partionmaking, faster image. I do NOT need the space, but i want the speed. c) It doesn't make any sound and it will lower temps at load with at least 5°C. | |
