I would like to move my components to a new case but I’m having some problems with it. First off I don’t know how many fan connectors are on the motherboard(I’m hoping there are at least 4) and would a 240 mm liquid cpu cooler be comparable. Also I would like to know if this motherboard is compatible with the NZXT H50i Case with rob(if it’s not then what cases if any are compatible). Thanks - Vince

From the pictures I can find, it looks like the motherboard is a standard micro-ATX format. You should be able to make it work in another case with minimal fuss (hopefully). From the pictures I can find there is a CPU fan header, a front fan header near the RAM slots, and a top case fan header above the CPU socket. If you want to run more fans they will need to be run off your PSU and won't be motherboard controlled.
