Hey there Fugue, I actually put together a shuttle, I've been using it for two years now no problems, the ICE system that it uses for cooling works really well, I've overclocked my 2.4 to a 2.8 no problem with just the stock settings, putting it together was easy even though its small and I would suggest you go that route. You will be limited to 2 internal hard drives, and only one internal cd-rom but if your ok with that then I say go for it, also the power supply in my machine is only 200W but it can handle the newest vid cards no problem, the on board audio works great and you cant beat its portabillity, (they make a carrying bag for these) I even did a case mod for a big vga cooler so I could oc my vid card. With that all said after using this machine for 2 years I can say my next machine is going to be a Shuttle as well. If you have any more questions feel free to pm me.
