E-ATX vs ATX

[Crowcreek]

Hello, I was wondering what pros/cons would be choosing a E-ATX over others ? Building a new rig soon and I really like some of the Asrock e-atx, looks like they can fit any type of aftermarket cpu cooler as well .

Pros: It has more features like extra PCI-E slot and etc.
Cons: Fewer Case compatibility.

Most any mobo can take most any CPU cooler, the E-ATX doesn't really help

nothing no cons and pro .. only you need EATX Case ... that is if your case is ATX you will have to buy another one.
