[SOLVED] Cooler Master COSMOS C700M-MOBO support is smaller

[leoz080323]

It says it supports MOBO for COSMOS C700M is E-ATX (Support up to 12" x 10.7"). However, COSMOS C700P (Support up to 12" x 11"). Is it true? My MOBO is 12x10.9 I am afraid it won't fit. It doesn't make sense the newer case would be smaller.

It might not make sense to you, but it is a fact. It IS smaller, and does not support the same size boards as the earlier revision.

MERGED QUESTION
Question from leoz080323 : "COSMOS C700M MOBO support size"

Specks for COSMOS C700M says it support MOBO E-ATX (Support up to 12" x 10.7"). However, C700P support E-ATX (Support up to 12" x 11"). Is this true that newer case is has smaller support for MOBO? I just bought my MOBO it is E-ATX 12" x 10.9. I am afraid COSMOS C700M won't fit.


Thank you

Don't post the same question twice. I already answered your question. You don't post additional questions just because you don't like the answer you got. I've seen this problem already with another member, and the board that was true E-ATX would NOT fit the newer Cosmos case. You can always make the attempt or perhaps make a modification to the case to get around it, although I'm not sure exactly HOW you would go about doing that.

Where there is a will, there is usually a way though, as they say.

Thank you for the response. I didn't mean to post it twice. I thought it didn't post the first time around due to the login issue.

No worries.

Would you know if be quiet! Dark Base PRO 900 Orange rev.2 supports MOBO 12x10.9?

Thank you

 

[Darkbreeze]

No idea, and their website doesn't say. I'd recommend shooting them an email to ask.

 

[leoz080323]

Thank you. Just FYI. I got their response.


Thank you for contacting be quiet! USA support. Please note our Dark Base Pro 900 rev2 can support E-ATX, XL-ATX, ATX, M-ATX, and Mini-ATX; therefore, your ASUS ROG Maximus XI Extreme LGA​ micro atx board should not be a problem

Yeah, that's pretty lame when you asked about a specific size of E-ATX and they respond with an answer saying it supports micro ATX. I'd answer them back and tell them as much. Tell them you need SPECIFIC information, because not all E-ATX boards are the same size. Ask them to elevate the inquiry to a higher support level if necessary.
