Thermal advanced chassis

Hi I am building a computer with a extreme edition 965 3.73 prosessor that requires a special chassis in order to run according to specs. I have followed thier list of companies that complies with the specs. Yet i have been unsuccessfull in getting a site which lists having a thermal advanced chassis. Please if anyone can lead me to a chassis that is known to be a great thermal advanced chassis for this type of processor. I would truely and gratfully appriciate it. Aloha Gameboyeater.

The only Case that I know of that has the ATAC is the Antec Sonata II Case.

There are probably more, however, this one is an excellent case. Comes bundled with a good quality 450 Watt power supply.

The ATAC is the big black block at the back of the case.

Actually the Sonata II is not on the TAC list. The list is on this page at Intel.

One of my favorite high performance airflow cases is the antec p180, coolermaster stacker, and the thermaltake armour, for the sub 150 dollar price range. All excellent cases. With top notch build and airflow characteristics. If you want space take the stacker, if you want some bling take the thermaltake, if you want fuction, and a clean look take the antec p180. The new black one is just so awesome looking. If your interested in a case that isnt on the list, I would always see if you can get one with mesh drive covers.
Such as the coolermaster centurion 5 (my favorite chassis under 80 bucks) Air flow issues are easily resolved with just doing a simple zip tie job of a fan right behind the mesh cover.

And if you want a light, smaller case, I really like the antec superlanboy. Or the lian li PC65
