Copper Base? What is this?

No, you will still need a thermal paste to maximise the heat transfer to the heat sink, This is becasue of all the microscopic peaks and valleys between the two faces of metal, the makers of ASII have a good description. Why copper? simple really it has a lower thermal resistance, which in...

Making up some LEDs for connection to a MOBO

Try farnell. Farnel code: 865-606 2 Way crimp housing. 2.5mm pitch I think. These are the ones I have used in the past for a similar purpose. You will also need the crimps, then the crimp tool (you will die at the price of that! - so I recommend just buying the crimps and soldering the wire...

Whoa! 100% see-through cases!

Clear cases are awesome to look at, wich I had one :( From: http://www.clear-viewtech.com/infopage.html "There is some EMI/RFI "noise" associated with electronics. CVT cases do not have any EMI/RFI shielding." heh.. "some" noise I love that. Remember metal cases reduce the EMC signature of a...

Building interfaces to common household appliances (i.e. home automation)

Some cool PIC microcontroller based complete web servers out there. A web search should spit them out. However, looks like Bluetooth is what you really want?

Need help building something QUIET!

For HD you cannot go far wrong with a couple of Quantum Fireball AS. For cooling, fit a bigger (thicker and wider) fan, and run it on a lower voltage. Do the same for all case fans, and get a decent psu. I am liking my enemax 350W very much, but can't speak for the others. Use thermal probes...

Where in the name of God, do you put all that damn wire from the Enermax PSU's??

Enermax psu is very nice and very quiet. :) Suggest you get a couple of long cable ties and bundle the psu output wires together. I bundled mine up and then used another long cable tie to pull the bundle up to the case frame. Also bundled the hd power leads.. very nice. Do not use elastic...
