Ya, I plan on getting an ASrock mobo no matter what for MiniITX HEDT, just because they were the first to bring it to market when many people questioned it and said it wouldn't work. I'm happy to support a company that's willing to give me more options.

Cool case. I want to say I have no use for it but every time I try to type it I think of how cool it'd be lol. So ya, I can see that!

Oh wow... that N1... lol. All I can keep saying is "This is super cool!"

See, this is why I'm excited about Fury Nano. Yes, the product/price wasn't that great itself, but it's bringing something super cool that will allow these crowd funded cases to come out to eventually become main stream. And we'll even have a SMALLER version of the N1 case some day.

Haha, that's really cool is all I can say, great, I really need a whole new mini ITX build to play around with now! Must control myself.

And now I'm convinced.

Now that I have a server to handle all my other tasks, it's time to get a rig that only needs to game! Thanks for putting me onto that case, I haven't looked much into Mini ITX until now since I don't need this thing anymore lol.

Let me make a suggestion after getting mine working the way I liked. Unless it conflicts with something else you want to do with the case (if you need to use the side HDD mounts, etc.), get a Corsair H100i variant, throw away the awful stock fans and get yourself a pair of Cryorig QF120 Balance fans (or optionally EK Varder F4-120ER's which are said to be even slightly better but more expensive), it will cool remarkably well and your ears will thank you for it. I didn't even want to install the Corsair software, hooked both fans up to the mobo pwm header with a splitter, the pump up to another and bypassed the Corsair software junk altogether.

Curses!!! That's even more money flying out the door. Looks promising.

It looks so amazing really. That stand design is just to die for. I've never seen anything like that in my life, and the panel has no bezel! Damn its so clean looking. I'm pretty sure Acer has one with similar specs coming. I know I read about the Acer one somewhere, but this Asus looks like the ticket man, if that's what you are looking for.
Depending on reviews, I just might be silly enough to sell my Acer and grab that Asus.

Wow! Is that 42TB all in one setup or spread out? I don't think I have 42TB (or 32 even) of active storage space spread out amongst all of my devices. My WHS is 12 I think, nothing else is even close to that.
See sig (64TB). I have two duplicate HTPC/fileservers in different locations (same content)

Just a little update. System has been torn down, rebuilt, torn down again, rinse, repeat, in order for me to get the best idea of how I'm wanting to run all the cabling, tubing, etc. It would be up and running currently if not for most of my compression fittings being of the straight or 45 degree variety, I had only a few 90 degree fittings, which as luck would have it are the ones I needed most with the rebuild. Primochill LRT tubing is nice stuff that looks great but it sure isn't the most flexible. Not the best choice for angles in which you can use the phrase "close enough for government work".

Anyway, the necessary fittings and extensions should be here sometime mid week and I'll try to grab some pictures during the final tear down before putting it together for good. Cards look stunning installed in the white Mercury BTW. I think the most shocking thing anyone will get out of it is just how massive the Mercury S8 with optional pedestal is when empty, then just how tight it all will get once you stuff five radiators, three pumps, two power supply units, and all the other various necessities in it.

^^ Wow, that's an incredible looking build. How do you keep all of your fans/radiators so clean and free of dust? The cooling for your CPU/GPU is just monstrous.

What's the overclock on your 5960X?

It's clearly the display rig. He has the gaming rig somewhere else!

Well, they all just received a cleaning....but I have an idea for that when I assemble it this time. I'm trying to find pure white pantyhose which I will precut and then secure around the fan assemblies on the intake side with those stretchy various colored bands (white in this case) that girls use for their hair. Pantyhose will offer almost no flow restriction and should be nearly invisible in that color once the outer case grating is in place.

4.5GHz daily, have taken it as far as 4750 for benching, may try for more now that I updated my videocards.

And I would have gotten away with it too if not for you meddling kids!

The less glamorous, yet still viciously potent backup pc (or as my seven year old calls it "his").

Very pretty. A little overkill for the intended usage but it looks damn sexy.

On a side note I used to date a girl who would wear white pantyhose. Your rig will look better in them....haha

YBS1, THANK YOU for the photos. Impressive! What cpu block are you using? Are you going to find white SLI ribbons? Are you going to run the gpus in series or parallel?

It's a Bitspower full coverage cpu/mobo block. Parallel, and not likely going to the trouble of making a custom white HOF bridge. I did find one on another forum made by a user that was beautifully done though, he should sell them.

You could also add some additional white accents using this rubber spray Plasti Dip (it's completely removable by peeling it off if you don't like it):
