Just to clarify I'm currently not pleased with the current Mini-ITX form factor as the lack of expansion card slots and space (it's quite cramped) I want to move it to a larger case (ATX) for reasons above. More details after statments below.

Again thank you for your suggestions and help. Really I'm looking for a case and motherboard. If I can reuse the CPU + cooler, RAM and other non-dependable parts thats fine.
