[SOLVED] LGA1700 on an Old Cabinet!

[hell_storm2004]

Hello Everyone,

I have to say the world of desktop computers have passed me by in the past decade. So I was wondering, I have an old Cooler Master CM690 cabinet and few other spare parts lying around the house. So my question was, can a brand new slick LGA1700 fit into that, like say Asus ROG Strix Z690-F?

Just wanted to know if the screws would align in the older case and all.

Its been a while since I have done a build from scratch.

The motherboard form factors have stayed the same so yes a ATX or mATX board.

Love those CM690 series, I had the 690 II Advanced. Great airflow case and the cheapo CM 140mm blue clear led fan was better than many others I tried.

It's a bigger ATX standard case. You can basically stick anything in there excepting E-ATX type motherboards. The only thing to watch for is standoff placements when changing motherboard form factors.

Cooler Master CM690 supports microATX and ATX

Asus ROG Strix Z690-F is ATX board

it will fit

Most people here don't care just give it to the first answer.

pick the one with the best avatar

Ooo that'd be me then...

Best answer isn't a popularity contest, not between regular posters anyways. So choose the one that satisfies the question to what you feel is the most correct way.

But thanks everyone!
