case advice...donating cpu/mobo/ram to fam....

Hi,
I'm switching from AMD to intel....and donating the insides of my PC to the FAM.
Anyhow...I have a DFI Ultra-D in a antec 3000B case. I need a significantly smaller case then the huge 3000B for the above Mobo. Any suggestions? The smaller the better...but I want it to breath. I probably won't be overclocking...maybe just a tad...nothing serious. This computer won't be used for games...maybe video playback and web.

The reason the case needs to be small is because it has to fit in this furniture thingy....and also cuz the parents don't want a huge case....

Thanks
 
1) Get the dimensions of the furniture thingy where it's going.
2) See if the FAR Ultra Wizard fits there.
3) Drill/dremel/mod the front so it can take a 92mm fan
4) Check if the furniture thingy has an enclosed space with a door and no breathing
5) If it does, drill/jigsaw/mod the furniture thingy so it has an intake coming from the front bottom, and an exhaust out the back.

There's tons of cases out there, but for a donated system one of those will do in a pinch.

Thanks!
Just one question is there nothing smaller then the wizard? Or is that the smallest for my board?(dfi ultra-D). Anyhow if I can't find anything smaller I'll probably go with it. I didn't want to pay > $40 for the case anyway...so the wizard should work...I guess.
