Hello,

My first post. Have a Cougar Spike case and wondering if the msi h61m-p31/w8 wiuld fit? I remember before when I was trying to change the mobo I noticed that where you screw the motherboard it does not align with the holes in the chasis. Currently the board installed on it is a GA-F2A55M-G2 board that determined that its dead as it will not post.

Thank you

Cougar spike is a micro ATX case
msi h61m-p31/w8 is a micro ATX board

It should fit. If the board you tried before isn't a mATX its screws should not line up.
GA-F2A55M-G2 also a micro ATX board.

Note: micro ATX often referred to as mATX or µATX.



When clicking this I was actually assuming this was an auto correct / speech-to-text for Counter Strike.
