It says 9,84"................

Sorry…
Was looking at it earlier and didn't see it.
I guess its time for bed when your starting to miss details LOL

Anyways...
Looking for a less deep case than my current setup that's 28.9" deep and wouldn't fit into my wall mount rack

- there are still some issues with the 64 bit video driver under pfsense 2.1-DEV. Had to go 32bit until its fixed

This has been fixed as of 07-09-2012 using the latest 2.1 64bit snapshot

Looks great, I'm looking into building a atom based system as wel with the same mobo.

Personaly I need three nics, so would need to find a riser that fits in the case or go for a MITX case instead of 1u.

Check the link in my previous post, they have everything you might need for your build.

I would choose an small itx case, is way cheaper and can use low profile cards.

Yeah i had a look at that 1U case but the i/o backplate wasnt listed at the time.. But still good to know it is now available.

On another note about plink products, item cost + shipping + customs fee were way above the one i took from neweggs (im in canada…).

Thank you for the update!

Got it from ebay for about 2$, shipping included.

Good luck with your build!

How loud is the case with those 40mm fans in it?

[gderf]

I'll bet it's pretty loud if the fans are the standard type, and all three of them are running.

My GTA GB-1000 1U units roar with the two stock fans. I replaced them with low noise types and it is almost silent.

Silenx IXP1314 iXtrema Pro Fan - 40mm x 20mm, 14dBA, 6CFM, $10.00 each.

Personally I am not a fan of the flexible risers. You should be able to find a combination of 90 degree solid riser and maybe you also need riser extension as well.

I bought some risers on eBay until I found one that worked, and then I used an extender I already had from a Tyan system.

Also, if you were to get Pico PSU I think you will find that the consumption could be about halved, also try to enable PowerD.
