Abnormal Motherboard

I am building a dual Xeon x5460 build with a GTX 980 and was wondering what cases would be compatible with this Motherboard. http://www.ebay.com/itm/DELL-PRICISION-T7400-WORKSTATION-MOTHERBOARD-RW199-0RW199-TESTED-T9-F8-/291521382738?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368 I also know that the original case it came in will work but I am wondering if there are any other cases that it would work in. 

My Work in Progress PC http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/522048-xeon-build/ <-- That PC was built but never booted:(

i'm not sure how bad your eyesight is, but last i seen, micro atx doesnt have enough room for 7 expansion slots.

Well... my first google search brought up mATX, now I see ATX and E-ATX

How well did it perform and by any chance do you know what Motherboard you used. Also thanks for telling me that two X5550 look better that 2 X5460s.

I'm still waiting to get the rest of the parts in but they perform very well, this is the board I'm using.

That board looks nice but any chance you know what type of PCI-E slot it has? I can't find a product page anywhere.
