[QUOTE="VdR, post: 842982, member: 25818"] Done some more research. The FC5 case is recommended up to 65W thermal for the CPU, that excludes the i5. Should use an i3. But then the later i3 2125, because it has the Intel HD 3000 graphics, rather than the 2000. Apparently there is a significant performance difference. I would like to use a mini-ITX board, although a micro-ATX would fit. But it is difficult to find a mini-ITX that is listed as compatible with the FC5 case, has a SPDif output on the back AND is available. Now thinking of the mini-ITX MSI H61I-E35 with an additional SPDif bracket. VdR [/QUOTE]
