Hi, I'm thinking of buying a H97 chipset motherboard. Which form factor should I get, micro-ATX or ATX? The only main difference that I've seen is that the ATX is more likely to have a SATA-Express slot.
I haven't chosen a case yet and I don't know which form factor I should get, although I'm sure it won't be anything smaller than a microATX. So I guess it depends on which size has better cooling or less noise...
On PCPartPicker, it offers these size types:
ATX Desktop
ATX Full Tower
ATX Mid Tower
ATX Mini Tower
MicroATX Desktop
MicroATX Mid Tower
MicroATX Mini Tower
MicroATX Slim
What's the difference between one and another?
