Hey all, buying a 1567 motherboard so I can get some cheap cheap quad xeons ($25 for a 6 core like wat....) But the the dimensions of the board are 16.4" x 16.79" so the Air 540 has to go.... Any recommendations? ty!

Thermaltake has the Core X9. An absolute monster of a case for only about 150 USD, not entirely sure even that will fit it though.

 

EDIT: it actually doesn't. it's dimensions are 19.8" x 15" x 25.2" (HxWxD) so it's not wide enough for it I think you'd have to look at a specialist market, and that isn't going to be cheap

Enthoo Pro? Should be able to handle any mobo and it's only $99.

doesn't look like it, I doubt I can find a case for this thing. It's MASSIVE

uuuuh, yea, you need a specialist case for that, and that probably isn't going to be cheap.

 

and actually, why?.. you're spending $800 on a motherboard, and only $50 for CPUs, and you already have a dual Xeon build. what is the purpose for this one?

$50 for 2 xeons?!?!? That's incredible lol, as for the mobo, it's not even a standard size. The largest the go is WTX for consumer/small business. As for pricing, your best bet is to see if you can find some older server trays, if you need something cheap, or if you can get it custom made, but other than that, I don't even think the 900D could fit that monster in it.
