Seeing how G45 was recently released, you'll probably be waiting a fairly long time for Core i7 mATX.

Just wait until the new chips are released and snap up some cheap 775 Quad CPU + G45/G33 motherboard combos if you still want to go mATX.

Plus, if you buy the Lian Li A05 (same size as the Antec), you can fit a full ATX motherboard in.
 
I really wish Intel would do a mATX chipset that doesn't have integrated graphics.

It just seems to slow them down with the release schedule. Maybe give G53 no integrated graphics, and G55 with.
 
i really did wanted that antec mini case as well...

what ATX case do you suggest?

and, i dont know if this is too much to ask...but could people post pictures of the guts of their rigs here? :p

i wanna see a lot of cases in real life (photos) and decide that way please?!?!
 
LOL. That is a Coolermaster ATCS case. Its not made anymore and costs about a billion pounds (£200). Plus, it has 80mm fans and is pretty large.

Also, the Antec 300 really isn't small. Its the same size as a Lian Li PC-7 (I think). Lian Li is better though.
 
Lian Li A17 4TW.

You NEED this case in your life.

You need in like...some water. Just buy it already. You're like spending 5 grand on the rest of your system.
 
im not actually spending anything on the system im getting it all free :p

i dont really like the Lian Li A17 4TW...what is the best case if money isnt a problem?
