Im looking for a Micro ATX Case for a core i7 any suggestions ?

I'm thinking about Silverstone SG01 and Lian Li 350/351 anyone tried these or have any other suggestions ?

In particular I know that the SG01 can only take a 78 mm high cpu heatsink, not sure about the lian- li's.

Would a Thermalright Ultra 120 eXtreme 120mm fit the lian li ?

I beleive the total height is about 160mm it looks as though it would just fit between the motherboard and underside of the power supply.

As far as I can tell they are both similar to their big bothers and have decent overclocking potential.
