Gaming case advise

I like the tacky cases with a window and nich led's they are awesome, looks like ill be using a Asus P5Q Pro Intel P45 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard and need a case to go with it, i have a power supply but the system will be used for gaming so will need at least one large fan if not several. I can add led's afterwards as theyre cheap but a window is a must, id also like the CD drive on the front and id like Mic+Headphone and USBs on the front for easy access

o yer by the way blue and green lights are better than red

If you want a tacky case with lights and a side window, can't go wrong with the Antec 900.

Why not try the Nzxt tempest, far better case than the guardian.

The guardian does look rather futuristic and mean, I quite like it also. It's mainly personal preference, the antec 900/1200 will give you what you want also. The Tempest is also a nice case.

but will all of these work with my chosen motherboard?

They should all take standard ATX mobtherboards.
