Hello Guys,

i sitting here next to a Desktop PC which is almost as loud as a freaking 
datacenter. Due to my old gaming habbits its not supposed to be silent, nor 
energyefficent.

I am in love with qubes-os for my daily struggles and tasks ;-).

But, i'd appreciate to have a system which won't start up every fan possible 
once i start another vm.

So i am looking forward to build a small, energyefficent and silent system, 
which will run qubes-os ootb without any problems.

As i happen to be a dad now, busy splitting my time between family, projects 
and work. I'd appreciate your guys help for building a micro/miniATX PC for 
Qubes OS

Specs:

- +16GB RAM
- +512GB SSD
- if possible a small nvidia-card for cuda and some occasional gaming. (not 
mandatory),
- Dual-Head-Graphics (uHD) is Mandatory
- WIFI (Mandatory)

i'd love to build it by using a case comparable to the Thermaltake 
CA-1D5-00S1WN-00 Black SPCC Micro ATX 
(https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA2F84EA2140)


Any ideas? i'd really appreciate your help.

You gotta get ATX as there aren't any easily available mATX boards (coreboot supports a few but they aren't sold anymore) I would get a KCMA-D8 (libre motherboard) with one of the 35W opteron CPU's and an AMD graphics card (nvidia doesn't like open source or virtualization on their "consumer" products)
It can support 128GB RAM, it has various expansion slots and a TPM header.
