PS, you only have to report 8% of your sales for tips. or credit card tips, whichever is higher

u dont think i tried? Coco's is the closest restaurant to me n i cant even get hired there. I've done 27 applications total, 27!!! All those applications were places for walking distances. U have no idea how hard it is for me to get a job in my area so dont u dare make it sound so easy when it's not. I struggle, no body is perfect so BACK OFF!!!!

Here's one:
Newegg.com - ASUS P5K-VM LGA 775 Intel G33 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail
...Good, if you not overclocking much, if at all. Has onboard video too.

I might add to the list. It's just that most people who purchase a Q6600, go for a performance ATX motherboard.

It just I want to build computer using one of those cases.

Newegg.com - APEVIA X-QPACK2-BK/500 Black Aluminum Body/ Front Mask MicroATX Desktop Computer Case 500W Power Supply - Retail
Newegg.com - Thermaltake LANBOX Lite VF6000BWS Black SECC Japanese steel Gaming Cube Computer Case - Retail
Newegg.com - Thermaltake VF1000BWS Black Aluminum Front Panel/ SECC Chassis MicroATX Desktop Computer Case - Retail
----
Since they all MicroATX, I guess I will have to go with MicroATX.

I also kind of worry about heat. Do you think I should put Water Cooling? if yes, which kit? or which parts?
Newegg.com - Thermaltake VF1000BWS Black Aluminum Front Panel/ SECC Chassis MicroATX Desktop Computer Case - Retail

=========
Or maybe there some small case which can support normal ATX? (I can put watercooling there too)

If you're not overclocking, you won't have to worry about heat. The stock cooling will do fine...and as long as you have a nice airflow going through that case.

time to add:
Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-MA790FX-DQ6 AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail

Newegg.com - MSI K9A2 Platinum AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail
