I've posted previously about buying a machine, but unfortunately I never got the oportunity to purchase the components.

I've now got the cash again and this is ideally what I want to buy:

Opty 170 or X2 4400+
2Gb Ram
NEC 4551 DVD-RW (2 if they will fit)
1x80Gb HDD
2x250Gb HDD's in Raid0 (i would prefer one big drive, but the samsung spin points are the quietest drives and don't come in 500Gb capacities)
ATi X1900 XT-X
Asus Crossfire Mobo (Micro ATX)
Tagan Modular PSU
X-FI Sound Card
PCI Wireless Network Card

Would all this fit in a Silverstone Sugo case without overheating and be reasonably quiet?

Would I be able to fit a better CPU cooler, a Freezer 64 or a scythe ninja?

I've also considered the Lian Li V1000 case, but as Ill be going to Lan Party's the small form factor would be ideal to carry.

It would also look cool sat on my desk at home.

I'm not in any hurry as I can't order it until OCUK get the NEC 20.1" monitor I want anyway.
 
As long as it has one DVD-R then i'm not bothered, two was just being greedy anyway :P
In any event, it seems like im trying to do too much in such a small case and it would be sensible to go with the lian-li then, which is a shame :/
I'd like to have had a small pc.
 
The reviews on it seem quite good, but it's still quite large in comparison to the Sugo or X-Pack. I think I would be better off purchasing the V1000, I can then use 120MM silent fans and the scythe ninja, which i've heard very good things about.

Thanks for the help, but it doesn't look like a SFF will cut the mustard :/
