future project

[bigKr33]

I have a pretty sick idea for a media/gaming rig. I don't plan on doing for 6-12months from now, but it does involve lian li's new pc-343b cube case. I'm inspired by the new design and have deemed it a good base for my new future project that i will most likely call "PowerRig5000". The budget will be $5k no more no less.

This is whats stumping me, supposdly the new lian li cube case can support two motherboards inside of it. I would have my media rig on one side and the gaming on the other. I would have dual monitor display and the gaming rig would be liquid cooled. I want to base this project around amd's long awaiting quad core 65nm beast. Sli is an option, and about 2terabytes of storage between the gaming rig and media machine. The media machine will not be sli, but it would however have a blu-ray, and hd-dvd all in one.

I love all the ideas (and believe me i can go on), but i don't know officially if the lian li cube case can hold two motherboards with minimal modding because i did see that there is only slot brackets on one side of the case which means no dual motherboard support. This project has been floating around in my head for about a week and it seems like it would a pretty fun project.

Any thoughts or downside to this project, just need to know the possibilities which i think are just about endless.

My sergeant just pointed this case out to me today. If you look at the back, it only has an I/O for one motherboard. Unless there's something I can't find about mod back-plates, it will only handle one (Look at the back of the case). Right now, I'm looking at having a gaming/server machine. Liquid cooling equipment on one side, hadware on the other with tubing running back and forth between the two sides.
