[QUOTE="Dazzyb2K3, post: 18352, member: 13433"] These are very specific requirements and while the Pundit and S-Presso are great 'ready built' solutions. Neither of them will give you what you need. They are both very tight for space/expandability and are far from silent. You need to pick a good case with plenty of room and perhaps a VFD built in as they can be tricky to retro fit. This will give you a greater choice of hardware and you will be less restricted in choosing the motherboard, video card etc that does what you need (great suggestions by mhuelsew here) and give you more scope for 'silent' cooling. Check out the Silverstone range. (I'm currently using an LC11M). Not the cheapest but the styling is great and lots of expandability. [/QUOTE]
