Sorry! I viewed it and didn't reply because I figured someone would come along with a better suggestion than I could offer. But you're right, that's a lot of views without replies for this board

One thing that I think would help is if we knew what you wanted to do. I mean, you say that you melted your CPU, but then you just say you want a bigger case. I would have thought that temperatures like that would have done some damage.

If you were looking to go with a new case/mobo, I would have just suggested a Shuttle. I think they basically have two lines, one for maximum performance and one for noise levels.

Other than that, I haven't looked at SFF cases that weren't sold as barebones systems.
