Ahoy, Gurus!
Quick question: Can anyone recommend me a good mATX motherboard that can handle the FX8150, or shed some light if there actually IS an mATX-board that can handle the FX8150? Haven't been able to find much on that so far. I do know that there hasn't been any 990-chipped mobos out in mATX yet, again as far as I've found out so far.
Longer explanation: Looking to build myself a new system, and I've been oogling the FX8150 for a while (yes, know about it's shortcomings). And having moved into a smaller flat, my old system that resides in my Matrix VX-case is 1: too big, 2: sucking it's guts full of cat-hair (have two of the beasts). So a strange thought struck me: why not build a system into an Antec Fusion Remote HTPC-case and then liquid cool it through an external pump/radiator/tank-assembly?
So. Anyone?
