small case, big heatsink?

[jgerac2]

I'm about to build a new system, and it has to be mATX to be able to go where I need it to go. Specifically, I want to use this case. It actually looks like it's pretty roomy inside for being such a small case, so I want to know if a big HSF will fit. The only problem I see would be how close the processor socket is going to be to the power supply.

This can depend on the mobo that you are getting. which mobo you going to get?

I haven't decided yet. If I go Intel, it will be this mobo and an E2180. If I go AMD, it will be this and an X2 5000+ Black Edition.

I bought the asus intel mobo and it arrived tomorrow. I will see which is the biggest heatsink it will fit...
