Yes but currently I have an mATX motherboard in an air 540 case which looks ridiculous lol. Sorry to hear UPS fucked your 540 over, I'm still not sure if they are bringing me my gtx 660 today, got an email at 2 am saying it was delayed a day due to a late trailer arrival or something, yet if I check the tracking it says both "delayed until next business day" and "out for delivery". So my 660 is in a state of flux as though it was heisenbergs cat lol.

That sucks man. I personally don't even know which shipping company to trust anymore. I've seen Blackbox recordings of in-air emergencies from fedex/ups planes (I'm USAF) and they scare me, and USPS leaves my packages out on the mailbox by the road. I lived in the country right next to a state highway. Also lost a power supply and a motherboard because they left it in the rain and snow. @uspsilencer #FAIL 

 

And for curiousity, damage to my 540:

  • Front top-left coner all kinds of jacked up/missing/#whatcorner
  • front left usb broke
  • front headphone broke
  • all the clips to hold the front panel on = on vacation
  • shattered one of my LED light strips (honestly i didn't care since they were never on)

I also never filed for a claim as I planed on getting a new case anyway, just means I'm not selling this one. :/

:o I'd have waited for the next delivery and kicked that drivers ass. Oddly enough, my driveway is 7/10ths of a mile long and they drive right to my door. However, I am last on everyone's route, and 99% of the time if they tell me "it will be delivered this day by 7pm" that means "it will be delivered the day after, and we won't tell you that until like, 11pm on the day we said it would be delivered"

Yea, my driveway is rather long as well. Goes around a field and out Elk pens.

Yes we have 27 elk...

Here is a picture I took with my camera last winter, and actually my hackintosh background.

You mean the view, because the hills in the back are just a mile away. And I took the image about 3 feet from him.

Nice, so you do hunt them or just raise them? I've always wanted enough land to have a small hunting preserve and do land management stuff. (before any peta freaks jump on me, that's when you create a safe environment for the animals and only hunt things that are a certain age, otherwise they live a relatively nice life and get fed for free)

this is getting really off topic, but we raise them for meat and the velvet from the antlers because the velvet is turned into medicine. used to be $120/lbs when each animal could produce 80lbs a year. Now it's $22/lbs because of CWD. Google that if intrigued.

Wake me up when they make an mATX case please. Although that looks nice.

x2 x2!

 

I don't think that they will. They want to stay for mitx only. To be honest, you can get quite a bit in a mITX build if you try.

Really? That's disappointing.

I'd buy one of their cases in a second if they made an microATX case with a window. :(

As much as I'd love to try, I just don't think I could squeeze 2 video cards into an mITX case ;)

I don't think it'll be that much of an issue with the way cards are moving.

Plus Silverstone makes a 650w SFX PSU. More than enough power for a system with one card.
