- Any single-slot backplate video card, or any dual-slot card with the end cut off (the second slot is over the power button, removing the power buttons caps should work too) (see Pic1 below to see clearance)
- sata dvd drive connected to SATA20 OR usb boot "acpi" drive.
- sata hard drive connected anywhere else.
- Power supply with a few 8-pins EPS or pcie connectors, or adapters (you need a total of to fill 8x2 and 7x2 pin)
- Another motherboard to connect ATX to boot (or you can make contact with the power supply's ON pin)
- OS with 16-core support. Ubuntu 9.10 AMD64 for example.
