Micro ATX case advice

[Emz]

Hi, I'm thinking of building a new gaming PC and delving into over clocking for the first time. So far I'm thinking of buying Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD7 P67 Socket 1155,

Intel Core i5-2500K 3.30GHz (Sandybridge), (which I would like to overclock to 4GHz or more)

Noctua NH-C12P SE14 CPU Cooler,

8GB Mushkin (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800,

Two ATI Radeon 5770 1GB ( I already own one and so so thinking of buying a second one now the price has dropped

My question is which micro ATX will comfortable house all these components and be quiet? I quite like the NZXT Vulcan but I have read it can be noisy which is no good when I want a quiet PC and also I'm not sure the cpu fan will fit. I also prefer a smaller box or light box as I will be carrying it off to various courses.

My component choices are not fixed -so suggested other CPU coolers if necessary! I chose the noctura as the gigabyte board is suited to down air flow fans( or so I have heard!)

Thanks for your help!

I would say go with a mid tower as IMHO its a pain in the a** to install or upgrade in a micro atx case as theres not much space in one. I speak from experience.

The P67A-UD7 is not a micro ATX board, it won't fit in a micro ATX case.

Darn, I meant to check that! Well that answers that! Thanks.

*Goes off to look at mid-towers*

Oh yeah change your cooler to the nh-d14.
