Nice.  Does the wife allow you to have an A/V receiver? :)  Those tend
to be much bulkier.

I'm surprised that case accepts uATX.

Assuming the motherboard I suggested fits (the heatsink on the
motherboard does look like it may be _slightly_ taller than back plate),
I wonder how you'd solve the cooling problem in that case.

There's not much room for a heatsink and fan.  The Hiper website does
show some compatible solutions though.  Unfortunately the only LGA
cooler they list is a stock Intel cooler, and I have never been happy
with those.  Still, you could check the dimensions and go from there.

I'm almost tempted to pick some of this stuff up and try. :)

Jason.
