1)Antec Super LanBoy case
(http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc.asp?description=11-129-145&depa=1)
OR
(2)RaidMax Scorpio 868 (http://www.pctoyland.com/prod_114.htm)
OR
(3)Lian Li PC-65B case
(http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-112-040&depa=1)

My motherboard is the Intel 865G. Which of those are most reliable and do not create heating problems? I like the RaidMax because of the price but Antec and Lian Li are well known companies soo...

edit : - changed the newegg addresses

Its not like you guys need the links :p (you could search if you wanted to, all but the LianLi of course). But to answer the question (without looking at the links), any of them work; realistically if they've got room for at least 3x80mm fans and preferably aluminum housing then you've got the cooling side done with.

The rest is asthetics and exhandability -- stuff that noone can reccomend to you :)

I prefer the Raidmax scorpio case. Its what I use and have no problems with it. Here is my case with a Half Life 2 mod fan grill...

thermaltake makes really good cases if you want to check them out. they're a bit more expensive but i think they're good. the raidmax is cheaper with a powersupply. the other two don't include them. if you're lookin' for best price that's the way to go.

I got a RAIDMAX w/ PSU, a no name PSU:p, a mistake that I made, so I bought another PSU, buy your PSU seperately, and skip the RAIDMAX case, wont recommend it, flimsy case;)

Praetor is right, the power supply that comes with the Raidmax cases (a generic 420w that they make) are not quality. I replaced mine with a MGE 500 watt psu (not sure if its one of the better psu's but I know it's better than what was originally there) So if you go with Raidmax plan on getting a different PSU.
