Proph's ITX Build Planning - Help Wanted!

[TheProfosist]

I thought those fans are discontinued?

No scythe just doesnt have a US dedicated distro anymore. Also i indeed cant find the 5400rpm ones that I would want most. thats just for giggles of have a fan as fast has some HDDs.

Here is the 3000rpm and here is the 4250rpm.

2nd Decision! This time its the ITX case!

I was originally looking at getting a prototype Parvum ITX case. it would look really awesome but I dont know how portable it would be without some protection and I would like to be able to easily take this system with me places. Due to that I did a bit more poking around and found the Lian-Li PC-TU200B. I choose it because it had a handle a seemed to be designed and built sturdily.

The other reasons I choose the case are:

A standard ATX PSU fits inside (once HDD cages are removed). This important to me because I would like to use a fan less PSU is at all possible. The PSU I am looking at is the SeaSonic SS-520FL2. It is not a requirement for the build if you find a case that better fits my needs but would be a nice thing to include. If a SFX PSU is needed I would probably use the Silverstone ST45SF-G as it is the best one that I know of.

A AIO 120/140mm Liquid Cooler with dual fans should fit in the front when the HDD cages removed. I am looking at the H75 or the H80i. This fitting kinda a requirement for whatever case I end up choosing.

It has a 5.25 bay so that gave me the idea to put in a 1x5.25 to 4x2.5 hotswap that I saw the other day on newegg. It is a great fit since the MB has 4 SATA headers. I do plan to eventually put all SSD's in there over time but for now there would be possibly one along with 2 750gb WD Scorpio Blacks that I have around. If you guys have any recommendations on the hotswap bay I would appreciate it as I havnt looked into it too much yet. The better built it is the happier am, metal is my friend.

Im not looking into the parvum anymore since it doesnt really fit my durable and portable needs, sorry I didnt make that clear. The Silverstone is a SFX and is the best option if you need a PSU of that standard. I only listed it in case someone came up with a good option for a case that maybe needed SFX instead of ATX. The Lian-Li was the best option that I found and i was wondering if anyone else had any ideas that may fit my needs. Also I listed the 3 additional reasons because I was wondering if they were all feasible things to do in the case. I should mention that there is one thing I dont like about the case and that is the fact that it has no place outtake fan.

I really like the parvum cases if you find his res pics you ll actually see that their really well constructed and quality built. I have also seen some really cool mods done with the mATX version.

Winner! LIAN LI PC-TU200B Black Aluminum Mini-ITX Tower Computer Case
