Dual Opterons in a SFF?!?

I'm a fan of SSF PCs, but this just might be a bit much.

I would like to see how hot this would get with two 250s,
two 36 gig raptors, a DVD burner, gig of ram, and a X800.

ya, these machines are being talked about at the 2CPU.com forums (THE place to go for all your SMP needs, at least I think so. spend so much time there.) and they are getting some nice comments. I have always wanted an SFF with a duallie, maybe I should get one to house a portable computer source. my tower cases with duallies inside are quite bulky.

Ouch, 250w PS. I wonder if it can run all that (+ decent vid card and HDs). Why don't they ever make a 2nd box for a external power supply?

edit: heres another link http://www.hexus.net/content/reviews...mlld19JRD03NzM since the main one seems to be 404.

That thing is going to be a screamer for sure. I'd really like to see a creative heatpiped cooling system there.

I might be looking for a small PC but I wonder how loud this thing is. No doubt it is powerful.

The Iwill site states a 300W supply.
Still, that is a lot of heat in that small space.
