YUP! Try these guys: http://compubits.com/http://www.shop4it.co.uk/I called them yesterday and they seemed to have them in stock, however ive decided on the sb65. I think it was shop4it that definately had them, but they seem to deal with trade accounts only. If links dont work, get their phone nos from the http://www.biostar-uk.com/ "where to buy" section. Sorry cant be more precise, or if i am wrong, mind a bit fuzzy last few days..... MORe info: LinkyBBS-P478/800-BIO-200T Price: £186.00 (€279.00) £218.55 (€327.83) Including VAT at 17.5% Happy?  |

Congrats!
Once you get it, tell us here of your experience with the retailer, and how things are with your IDEQ.
Add to the knowledge base!

Got it!
Compubits were excellent, I'd definitely recommend them.
The 200T is great, very quiet and damn fast with my 2.4C currently overclocked to 2.9Ghz!
The onboard sound is really rather good but does suffer from a high pitch whine and a rumbling noise when I move the mousewheel. The noise is loud enough to make headphones unusable but quiet enough that it's not noticeable with my speakers at normal volume. An all-digital (SPDIF)speaker system is probably the only way around this.
The only other problem is how close together the AGP and PCI slots are. Any reasonable heatsink&fan on the graphics card can apparantly render the PCI unusable, a MAJOR design flaw.
I'll have to do some serious research when buying my next GFX card.

The issue with onboard sound via the front sockets is a common complaint on many SFF boxes - not just the iDEQ. If the AGP slot was on the outside of the PCI slot, as per Shuttle, then you'd have slightly more room, but big cards would not allow you to fit the lid on. At least with the iDEQ, if you want to fit something massive like the oTES or a Zalman cooled crad, you can skip the PCI card and it will fit. There would be no such chance with a Shuttle XPC.... |

Hi
Would a PCI sound card and a Radeon 9800 (not the Ultimate edition) fit in the iDEQ at the same time?
Thanks

Should do (doesn't have an oversized GPU heatsink) - the ultimate edition would not tho! Hope this helps. Nigel |
