[QUOTE="robyf, post: 98248, member: 13314"] I have the same case but my mediaportal is based on an old athlon xp 2400 (barton). I use firedtv as tvtuner (but you must have a firewire port) so I don't need to fit other PCI cards into the chassis. I think the zalman will fit (there's plenty of space where CPU is located). My raccomandation is to use a cooler that takes air from the CPU and ejects it through the hole over the processor. I personally use a termaltake silent boost for athlon XP. To make the HTPC silent and cooled I recommend to: - Install an additional fan on the left of the case where there are holes. - Substitute the fan in the power supply with a more silent one (the one installed is pretty noisy) - Buy some zalman fan mate 2 or something similar to reduce the fan voltage and noise Roby [/QUOTE]
