Well im planning on getting a new setup for an amd64. I can't decide on either Antec's midtower super lanboy, or the mini cases like the shoe box size, by Biostar, for amd64 processors. I want something thats light like but also so i can kick it at lan parties. The "shoebox" cases i hear COOK themselves unless you got water cooling or something. Tho i already have an exos2 by koolance, and the Super Lanboy i guess i'd want just because its more expandable and is most likely not to cook itself.
sorry about the grammar.

first off, i dont consider koolance watercooling. its a cooling system that resembles watercooling, but without all the benefits and twice the expense.

that aside, it depends on what you want. people still get kickass gaming power with the biostar boxes, they just run hot; nothing outside of spec however. theyre damn tiny as well, which is good for carrying around, bad for expansion/customization. the lanboy is bigger, but is easily expanded.
 
The Super Lanboy case is very nice. It's a little thin, but then again it's made to me very light for lan parties. The dual 120mm fans are great for keeping the system cool. And, it's only $70.
 
AMD64 SSF?

Get the biostar one. My brother has it. Its fairly noisey, but runs exceptionally well. The shuttle version doesnt look quite as nice and gets REALLY hot. Thats one messed up shuttle.

The biostar AMD64 is the one to go for. Trust me, in person it looks 5x better than in the photos.
