Please take a few minutes and look at the specifications for my new system. I am somewhat new to having custom systems built for me. I'm ordering from Monarch. I'm attempting to build a quiet system as I'm a programmer and sit next to it all day. I should also mention that I don't do any gaming. Hence I'm not planning to use multiple video cards. I do however have many tasks running at the same time which hopefully will utilize the dual core processor. I do not plan on doing any overclocking at this point in time. However, I may want to experiment with it in the future.
I want to make sure that there are not any conflicts between the components that I have chosen. I'm somewhat concerned about the passive cooling on the Abit AN8 Ultra, as I've selected an Antec P180 case. Monarch has indicated that the mother board will be inverted in this case. The research that I've done by scanning user forums seems to indicate that the P180 does NOT mount the motherboards inverted. So I'm wondering if I need additional cooling on the NB (?).
thanks for your feedback.
