PLEX has come out with some neat new HTPC chassis using itx mobos. Very compact (read: TINY) and no need or cpu or case fan. They work on heat-pipe cooling - see the cpu heatsinc has copper pipes that run along the physical exterior of the case which uses its chassis (aluminium fins) to deliver the cooling. I think the manufacturer needs to state the maximum ambient room temp the cases will function at (this information is not apparent on their site). Apart from that they look promising for those looking for a completely silent itx solution.
