Would be my choice too if I had to buy a new chassis. The price is more than you paid for your CPU and you're saying you don't have money for a better mobo :) ? Actually paying for a good computer case is a great idea, you won't regret. BTW something I forgot to mention is that the other expensive gigabyte mobo has a dedicated memory (128 MB DDR3) for its integrated graphics (called sideport memory by AMD). Not a big deal but it's a nice feature. Last, I hope you have a good PSU, don't use a crappy one. If you need help picking one, don't hesitate to ask.
