My HTPC-build

eskro Wrote:wait a sec,,,,

i never said all will fit!

However i dont see problems,,,,,

3 things u need to check...

#1, apex case is recommanded to buy an 120mm silen fan with it...
because CPU cooler will sit right under the PSU and a FAN will prevent
over heating.,,, ask bluray, he can even show u pic of where to put the fan,,,,

#2, dont buy that 80mm fan since your not buying the Polly case,,,

#3. we need to make sure that the FanLess cooling on the GPU card will fit in the case,,,
im trying to find pictures of the card but so far,
none i see can confirm me how wide it is,,,,

Oops, I did ask you about that gpu in that case in your "My Very First HTPC, But Where do I Start?" thread.

Anyway, Its my own fault if it doesnt fit, I should have doublechecked before i ordered it Its to easy to just click "buy" lol

like i said, i dont see problems,,,,,

should be good to go but u need that extra silent 120mm fan,,,

I love it, yes its kinda bulky and the led indicators are too bright but its roomy yet compact and it is WELL ventilated. But since its DIY, be specific to whats important to you but if you want room enough not to worry about your hardware decisions and excessive heat then the case might be it.

No, I havent bought anything but the case yet. Added this 120mm fan instead of that 80mm.

it is too bad that you are not in western united states. amazon is a great place to shop for electronics, and it take only 1 to 2 days to receive the order from them.
