your good waver123!!
your system rocks!!
you'll never stress your hardware like Prime95 + Furmark do anyways!!
idle at ~22w is consistent with pugetssytems reports!
and ~32w is playing 1080P?

XBMC + ISK110 FTW!!!
i emailed ANTEC support
and asked them if the ISK110 has a MD-90 power converter.
so answer is YES, the ISK110 truly has a 90W PSU.
well, if ANTEC support said correct of course..
as we know, the prior version ISK100 had the MD-80 power converter.
so even tho they supplied it with a 90W power brick,
you'd still have to think as if you had an 80W PSU.

Holy jesus christ. I had no idea that was how big the 'Big Shuriken 2" was.
That's roughly the same size as the mobo, isn't it?
I'll think twice before buying one.

Yes it's freaking big, very quality built though, great cooler if it fits in your case.
I wonder if the shuriken rev B would fit better, it uses push-pin and don't need a custom backplate I think.

Shuriken Rev B is 6mm taller than the Shuriken 2 so I'll have to see what clearance I have, but the stock heatsync might be fine anyway.

Yes after I tune down the fan in the bios, the fan noise is not too bad, for xbmc the cpu is hardly sweating.
