| 136383 | 2003-04-17 01:35:00 | Im buying a new motherboard thats says its size is 'ATX (305mm x 230mm)' my old motherboard says its an 'ATX , 4 layer PCB (31.0*19.2cm)' Am i going to have to get a new case or does the few mm's matter? |

| 136385 | 2003-04-17 01:57:00 | The size of the physical motherboard shouldn't matter too much. It's where the holes are, to mount in the case. That few mm shouldn't make a great deal of difference, providing that your case is big enough to take the extra bit. I'm reasonably sure that all ATX motherboards have the holes the same spacing apart, so it shouldn't really matter. |
