Hey aux9o,

If ya wish to keep it small then you might find some good ideas from my thread Special Report: Project Z-Wave... (here)

Some of the components have been updated since I posted that thread. The ASRock MB in that post is no longer available and it's replacement has a potential problem, The MB vRegs for the integrated GPU do not have heatsinks. So going the ASRock route would necessitate adding your own heatsinks, but that is an inexpensive solution and easy to do.

For the AMD platform I like the GIGABYTE GA-F2A88XN-WIFI (Newegg Link)

If you want an Intel solution in the mini-ITX form factor, then have a look at these MBs (Newegg Link)

I like the CM Elite 130 (Newegg Link) over the Elite 120 in my thread as no modding is required for a AIO water cooling solution.

Note: Newegg is no longer the low price leader, so it's likely you'll find better prices elsewhere.
