Just read a review of the DFI LAN party jr x58. Seems like an all around good board. Can hit 4.0Ghz on a 920 on air. i7's are known to pump out some heat overclocked, which is obviously a concern. In my quest to build something different for my next rig, I thought about going the Micro route. I've done countless full towers, mid towers, and a couple of WC rigs. Used Cooler Master, Thermaltake, DD, and your other typical brands of cases and want to try something a bit different. Smaller, portable, still somewhat of a heavy hitter for gaming.
Are any of you rockin an i7 rig in a MicroATX case air cooled and OC'ed? I've had my eye on the Sugo series and LANbox lite. I'd like something that can fit a decent sized aftermarket heatsink, but I'm not too interested in a Mini Tower case, so I'm not sure of any viable options. Would be nice to be able to fit a GTX260 in, but a smaller card like a GTS 250 would work.
EDIT: I should also add, at the moment I'm not looking to WC a MicroATX case.
