Here is one of my favorite Ivy Bridge servers that I did recently...

http://www.assassinserver.com/?p=130

I'd love to know how Goliath compares in power consumption to my "David" .

Here are some results on the Goliath after kill-a-watt testing today by the owner.

Idle: 65 Watts. Cpu usage at idle was 4%.
Streaming GI Joe ( DTS HD BD @ 1080P ) for 1 hour: 75 watts
Boot time to full idle windows screen: 127 watts

Even I am impressed and I built the damn thing.

I am way more impressed than you are I can assure you of that AND I OWN the damn thing !!

Just wanted to stop by and let everyone on this fine forum community know how pleased I am with Goliath and even more with the help and guidance I received from Assassin on this server so aptly named Goliath . Assassin did a wonderful job building and collaborating with me on parts selection and software set ups. . He never lost patience with me and took all questions and concerns from me seriously . In the end I received a huge quality build with some of the best software set ups in the industry and for a very reasonable cost factor .

Thanks for allowing me to post and a special "shout out" to Assassin ... Thanks Man !

What case is that for that Goliath Server. Is there a page that shows all the details on that server?

From pictures in the link above it looks like you got Microsoft Security Essentials to work on WHS 2011. If so, how?

Is that an "Ivy Bridge G620" in the picture at your link above?
